Picturesque Movement

0.01 sec.

A movement established by a group of architects from about 1840 to 1900, particularly in Europe, wedded to the concept that architectural ideals should look away from formal Classical architecture and instead should embrace the romanticized past. The term “Picturesque” is not indicative of a particular architectural style, but is suggestive of a number of styles or modes of architecture that were related to the romanticized past, including: Exotic Revival, Gothic Revival, Italianate style, Queen Anne style, Richardsonian Romanesque style, Second Empire style, Stick style, Swiss Cottage architecture.
