Renaissance Revival
The Renaissance Revival, also known as the Neo-Renaissance, was an architectural and artistic movement that emerged in the 19th century. It sought to revive the styles and ideals of the Renaissance period, characterized by symmetry, proportion, and the use of classical elements. This movement influenced various forms of art, including painting, sculpture, and decorative arts.
In architecture, the Renaissance Revival is marked by the use of columns, arches, and elaborate facades. Notable examples include the Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana in Rome and the Natural History Museum in London. The movement reflected a broader interest in history and culture during the Victorian era.
