Aestheticism (also known as the aesthetic movement) flourished in Britain in the 1870's and 1880's, but had lasting influence. The Aesthetic Movement maintained that art should not be confined to painting, sculpture, and architecture, but should be a part of everyday life. To this end, Aestheticism embraced not only the "high" arts, but also ceramics, metalwork, fashion, furniture-making, and interior design.
