The eclectic style was born from the mixing of the best styles of the past. It develops in England at the beginning of the eighteenth century and lasts until the twentieth century. In the 19th century artists resumed the forms of Neoclassicism, Baroque and Gothic. It is a style characterized by virtuosity and elegance. In Italy it is the first time that a common taste has been affirmed; a national identity is sought. The Umbertino style belongs to this stylistic period.
What are the characteristics of the eclectic style?
In the eclectic style furniture many elements of the past are back in fashion such as: mother of pearl, frames , large three-dimensional carvings, bamboo and ornamental motifs (such as acanthus leaves, claws, lion heads and garlands). It is a style that “loves the different”. It takes up the Egyptian, Greek and oriental elements; in the decorations of the eclectic style furnishings there is a strong contamination of different cultures. The eclectic style rejects the concept of "absolutely beautiful". There are no rigid rules that must be respected that limit the freedom of artists. It is the first time that mixing of styles has been accepted.
