2. Victorian era (British & USA)
During the Victorian era, Britain could claim to be the world's superpower, despite social inequality at home (UK).
It was characterized by various types of decorative, and even over- decorative, ornamentation.
During the Industrial Revolution, the middle classes were able to increase their prosperity and for the first time invest in the decor and design of their homes.
They( rich) immediately began to emulate (match)the aristocracy (high class)and filled their homes to bursting point with accessories, furnishings and fabrics, all designed to showcase their new wealth and status.
Aristocracy (Greek ἀριστοκρατία aristokratía, from ἄριστος aristos "excellent", and κράτος, kratos 'rule') is a form of government that places strength in the hands of a small, privileged ruling class.[1] The term derives from the Greek aristokratia, meaning "rule of the best-born".[2]
