The Biedermeier period refers to an era in Central Europe during which the middle class developed and the arts appealed to the common sensibility, in the historical period between 1815, the year of the Congress of Vienna at the end of the Napoleonic Wars, and 1848, the year of the European revolutions. Although the term itself is a historical reference, it is mostly used to refer to the artistic styles that flourished in the fields of literature, music, visual arts, and interior decoration.
This unique piece with its exaggerated baroque curves, bulbous or ornamental form, heralds the beginning of the pre-industrial era and the enrichment of the bourgeoisie of that time whose mores were evolving towards more frivolity.
