Revivals and Regional Romanticisms: Nine Styles from 1750 to 1930

The Getty Art and Architecture Thesaurus dates Greek Revival from the 1750s to about 1840 and ties it to classical Greek forms and ornament. The atlas page names the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin and the Lincoln Memorial among its landmarks and notes it was strongest in Britain, Germany and North America.

Empire style is Napoleon's version of neoclassicism, which its source dates from 1799 to 1815 in France. Charles Percier and Pierre Fontaine added eagles, laurel wreaths and sphinxes to the Roman model, and their Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel of 1808 is the page's signature example.

Egyptian Revival followed public awareness of Egyptian monuments after Napoleon's invasion of 1798. Its recorded source notes that the expedition's Description de l'Égypte began publication in 1809 and ran through 1826, and the page lists pyramid-shaped mausoleums, sphinxes and the pylon doorway among the borrowings.

Biedermeier names the art and culture of the German Confederation between 1815 and 1848, as its Wikipedia source states. The atlas page ties its modest, practical buildings and cherry and oak furniture to a growing middle class, in contrast to the grandeur of the Empire style.

The Getty Art and Architecture Thesaurus places the Craftsman style in the United States from about 1870 to about 1925. The atlas page takes its name from Gustav Stickley's magazine The Craftsman of 1901 and describes low gabled roofs, exposed rafters and wide porches on tapered columns.

Dragestil, the dragon style, was used principally between 1880 and 1910 according to its Wikipedia source. The atlas page links it to Norwegian romantic nationalism, with timber walls and carved dragon heads drawn from stave churches and the Oseberg and Gokstad ship finds.

Its Wikipedia source dates Catalan Modernisme from roughly 1888, the First Barcelona World Fair, to 1911. The atlas page describes a movement centred on Barcelona that favoured curves, vegetal motifs and medieval and Arab sources, with Antoni Gaudi, Lluis Domenech i Montaner and Josep Puig i Cadafalch as its leading architects.

Federation architecture is prevalent in Australia from around 1890 to 1915, per its Wikipedia source, and takes its name from the federation of the colonies on 1 January 1901. The atlas page notes red brick cottages with timber verandas and local motifs such as the waratah and the kookaburra.

Its Wikipedia source says Nordic Classicism briefly blossomed in Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland between 1910 and 1930. The atlas page places it between National Romantic and Jugendstil work and Functionalism, and records that it is called Swedish Grace in Sweden.
