Biedermeier was an influential style of furniture, interior design, and visual art that flourished in the German Confederation, the Austrian Empire, and Scandinavia between 1815 and 1848. Situated between Neoclassicism and Romanticism , it was the first artistic style to emerge from the sensibilities of the growing urban middle class.

The aesthetic is characterized by its emphasis on simplicity, functionality, comfort, and domestic life. It represented a turn inward, away from the grand, aristocratic tastes of the preceding Empire Style and the political turmoil of the Napoleonic Wars, focusing instead on the private world of the family home. The name was originally derogatory, derived from " Papa Biedermeier ," a caricature of a simple-minded, comfortable bourgeois citizen.
