Which of the following is NOT an alternative name for Art Nouveau in other countries?

• A. Jugendstil
• B. Stile Liberty
• C. Modernista
• D. Baroque Revival

Answer: (D)

Art Nouveau traveled across Europe under different regional names, reflecting local language and taste. In Germany and Austria it’s known as Jugendstil, in Italy as Stile Liberty, and in Catalonia it’s called Modernista (also seen as Modernisme in broader Catalan contexts). Baroque Revival, however, refers to a separate 19th‑century revival of Baroque architecture and ornament, with a different spirit and aesthetic than Art Nouveau’s flowing, plant-inspired lines. Because Baroque Revival isn’t an international label for Art Nouveau, it’s the term that does not fit as an alternative name for the movement.
