SYMBOLISM

Symbolism Movement
My Opinion

1885-1910

Personally, I think, symbolism movement is to give practical meaning in the big picture in a simple kind of expression.Some kind of real life by the spirit of the definition, summarized the basis of its features to simplify the graphics. In my opinion, this movement has in the classical sense of mystery, usually think of astrology and the like astrology methods. In the current era of goods, symbolism movement of goods is still the extensive use of logo, graphics will be simplified into the spirit of enterprise to promote products.

Google About Symbolism
Symbolism was largely a reaction against naturalism and realism, anti-idealistic movements which attempted to capture reality in its gritty particularity, and to elevate the humble and the ordinary over the ideal. These movements invited a reaction in favour of spirituality, the imagination, and dreams; the path to symbolism began with that reaction.[1] Some writers, such as Joris-Karl Huysmans, began as naturalists before moving in the direction of symbolism; for Huysmans, this change reflected his awakening interest in religion and spirituality. On the other hand, certain of the characteristic subjects of the decadents reflect naturalist interest in sexuality and taboo subjects, but in their case this was mixed with a stiff dose of Byronic romanticism and the world-weariness characteristic of the fin de siècle.

  1. I kinda disagree with the symbolism picture that U put there,, the pigeon represent peace not freedom, and the NAZI's swastika represent balance and equilibrium, not power, it is the NAZI's eagle represent power in the NAZI organization.
