[[Art Nouveau]] appeared in Romania during the same years as in Western Europe (early 1890s until the outbreak of World War I in 1914), but here few of the buildings are in this style, the [[Beaux-Arts architecture|Beaux-Arts]] style being predominant. The most famous is the [[Constanța Casino]]. Most of the Romanian examples of Art Nouveau architecture are actually mixes of Beaux Arts and Art Nouveau, like the Romulus Porescu House or house no. 61 on Strada Vasile Lascăr, both in Bucharest.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Florea|first1=Vasile|title=Arta Românească de la Origini până în Prezent|date=2016|publisher=Litera|isbn=978-606-33-1053-9|pages=297, 302, 305, 306, 313, 317}}</ref> This is similar to what was happening in France, where eclecticism was more popular, pure Art Nouveau buildings and structures being relatively rare. Despite most houses from the reign of Carol I being Beaux-Arts, some of them have Art Nouveau stoves inside, since the style of the exterior did not always dictate that of the stove or the entire interior.

One of the most notable Art Nouveau painters from Romania was [[Ștefan Luchian]], who quickly took over the innovative and decorative directions of Art Nouveau for a short period of time. This period coincided with the founding of the Ileana Society in 1897, of which he was a founding member, a society that organized an exhibition at the Union Hotel titled ''The Exhibition of Independent Artists'' (1898) and published the ''Ileana Magazine''.<ref>Elena Olariu... p. 16</ref>

[[Transylvania]] has examples of both Art Nouveau and Romanian Revival buildings, the former being from the Austro-Hungarian era. Most of them can be found in [[Oradea]], nicknamed the "Art Nouveau capital of Romania",<ref>{{cite web |url= https://infooradea.ro/oradea-capitala-art-nouveau-a-romaniei-celebreaza-ziua-internationala-art-nouveau-2019/ |title=Oradea, capitala Art Nouveau a Romaniei, celebreaza 'Ziua Internațională Art Nouveau 2019' |date=June 7, 2019 |website=infooradea.ro |publisher= |access-date=May 23, 2021 |archive-date=23 May 2021 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20210523185914/https://infooradea.ro/oradea-capitala-art-nouveau-a-romaniei-celebreaza-ziua-internationala-art-nouveau-2019/ |url-status=live}}</ref> but also in [[Timișoara]], [[Târgu Mureș]] and [[Sibiu]].<ref>{{cite web |url= https://heritageoftimisoara.ro/cladiri/stil/Art+Nouveau+Secession |title=Heritage of Timisoara – Cladiri |author=<!--Not stated--> |date= |website=heritageoftimisoara.ro |publisher= |access-date=May 23, 2021 |archive-date=16 May 2021 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20210516143920/https://heritageoftimisoara.ro/cladiri/stil/Art+Nouveau+Secession |url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url= https://wondersoftransylvania.com/wonder/the-art-nouveau-public-buildings-of-tirgu-mures |title=The Art Nouveau public buildings of Tîrgu Mureș |last=Ungvári |first=Zrínyi Imre |date= |website=wondersoftransylvania.com |publisher= |access-date=May 23, 2021 |archive-date=23 May 2021 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20210523185914/https://wondersoftransylvania.com/wonder/the-art-nouveau-public-buildings-of-tirgu-mures |url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url= https://patrimoniu.sibiu.ro/cladiri2/mitropoliei/274 |title=Str.
