Summary/Abstract: The end of the 19th century marked a turning point for the European art scene. The 1890s embodied an extremely prolific period, which encouraged bold experimenting in art. During this period, not only did society manifest a tolerant attitude towards novelty, it was in fact nourished by an insatiable desire for originality and innovation. Reacting vehemently against the Historicism of the 19th century, artists began searching for a more distinctive style, in accordance with the new developing modern era.
