THE NAPOLEON III STYLE: THE STYLE OF OPULENCE
Abstract
The style developed under the reign of Emperor Napoleon III, both in the Decorative Arts, furniture and in the ornamentation of spaces, does not obey a design concept created specifically for the Second Empire, it is a recovery of different styles generated in France in previous centuries. It is not therefore an aesthetic born parallel to the Empire of Napoleon and Eugenia; is a compilation of the great French styles that in the past managed to create strong decorative trends both in France and in European courts.
