1815 to 1850 Germany
Biedermeier Realism was an artistic style associated with the Biedermeier period in Central Europe from 1815 to 1848. It focused on scenes of bourgeois domestic life, emphasizing comfort, simplicity, and a serene sense of order. The art, marked by clear composition and subdued colors, often depicted cozy interiors, tranquil landscapes, and family portraits, eschewing grandiose historical or mythical subjects. Reflecting the conservative mood of the middle class during a time of political calm, Biedermeier artworks celebrated private life and personal contentment.
