Neoclassicism refers to the revival of classical art and architecture beginning in Europe in the 1750s and lasting until around 1830; with late Neoclassicism lingering through the 1870s. Neoclassicism is a highly complex movement that brought together seemingly disparate issues into a new and culturally rich era; one that was; however; remarkably unified under the banner of classicism. This movement was born in Italy and France and then spread across Europe to Russia and across the ocean to the United States.The Historical Dictionary of Neoclassical Art and Architecture provides an overview of Neoclassicism; focusing on its major artists; architects; stylistic subcategories; ideas; and historical framework of the 18th century style found mainly in Europe and the United States. This is done through a chronology; an introductory essay; an extensive bibliography; and over 200 dictionary entries on famous artists; sculptors; architects; patrons; and other historical figures and events.

My husband liked this bookBy Ringolover5My husband liked this book. Hes about 6 months into his piano lessons and was able to pick it up fairly easily. One thing to note though. we found out from his piano teacher that some songs arent written in the original key. Theyre written in a key thats easier to learn so you may get the "dirty eye" from classical piano enthusiasts. lol. But theyre still fun to learn.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
