Bringing the assimilation of France's Symbolism, Decadence and Parnassianism, it promoted a distinctly urban culture, characterized by cosmopolitanism, Francophilia and endorsement of Westernization, and was generally opposed to either rural themes or patriotic displays in art.

National College (Iași)
__NOTOC__ The National College ( ro, Colegiul Național) is a high school located at 4 Arcu Street, Iași, Romania. History The school traces its origins to two earlier institutions, the Vasilian College and Academia Mihăileană. In 1860, when the latter's higher education role was taken over by the new University of Iași, it continued as the National College, a high school with seven grades. In 1864, it was renamed the National High School; reflecting its early commitment to the Romanian language, it was the country's first school to feature the term “national” in its name. The new and current building, designed by Nicolae Gabrielescu, dates to 1890–1894. The student magazine ''Spre lumină'' first appeared in 1903. In 1916–1918, during World War I, the building was used as a Red Cross hospital. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
