Historicism The publication of Jules Michelet's collections during the Restoration and the creation of a “National Novel” to lend credibility to the regime in power, as well as the artistic emulation surrounding the writer Walter Scott and the painter Fleury-Richard, created a veritable “neo-Gothic” or “Gothic revival” artistic vogue.
