Timeless

A selection of timeless furniture and objects. Maison Arteslonga 

Orientalist

Orientalism is a literary and artistic movement born in Western Europe in the 18th century. Through its breadth and vogue, throughout the 19th century, it marked the interest and curiosity of artists and writers for the countries of the west (the Maghreb) or the Levant (the Middle East). Born in the fascination of the Ottoman Empire, this exotic trend is associated with all the artistic currents of the 19th century, academic, romantic, realist or even impressionist. It is present in architecture, music, painting, literature, poetry…

Baroque

Italy is the birthplace of the Baroque. From the middle of the 16th century to the 18th century, the Baroque style marked European art and architecture, not to mention the fields of music and dance. Characterized by a taste for movement, dramatization and decorative exuberance, Baroque is a complex aesthetic paradigm that aims to surprise and move viewers. A large-scale movement, it quickly spread from Italy to the major countries of Europe. Rubens, Vélasquez, Caravaggio, Bernini… These few famous names reveal the influence on a European scale of the Baroque, which could be defined as a spirit contrary to that of classicism.

Proustian Era

An interior decoration collection inspired by the Napoleon III era and the beginning of the 20th century offering revisited furniture and decorative accessories for a unique and inspiring current decoration. The Napoleon III style is located between 1852 and 1870. Presents two very different aspects: the copy and the Napoleon III style itself. It consists, especially in the early years, of a mixture of different previous styles: Louis XIV, Boulle furniture; Louis XV for the living rooms: rockery and gilded wood, Louis XVI for the bedrooms; finally Renaissance for the dining rooms. Little by little it will take on its true character: blackened pear wood, mother-of-pearl inlays, small pieces of furniture, trinkets, padded seats.A collection of interior decoration inspired by the Napoleon III period and the beginning of the 20th century, offering furniture and decorative accessories revisited for a unique and inspiring current decoration.

Greco-Roman

Decorative art in the ancient Greco-Roman style, a unique style of decoration including magnificent sculptures, statues, busts, bodies and faces of remarkable craftsmanship.

Cabinet of Curiosities

The cabinets of curiosities are real little scientific museums which aimed to introduce people to the world, and in particular the distant world, at a time when airplanes did not exist. Cabinets of curiosities appeared during the Renaissance, in the second half of the 16th century; a time when we move to another phase of natural sciences, until then based on Aristotle and his metaphysical approach: until the end of the Middle Ages, we consider that there is a natural order, and that it is regulated . The scientists of the Renaissance, for their part, tried to understand, classify, bring all this scattered data, a little fanciful at times, into a more rational framework, which combines technique (discovery of the astrolabe and multiple instruments... ) to science. Have a good trip !

Ethnic Chic
