Rococo (18 th Century) Danielle Laraque \

18 th century [Late-Baroque] Emerged in France In 1699 King Louis XIV ordered the artists commissioned for works in Versailles to exemplify a more playful look. Rejected baroque's seriousness Aimed to look graceful and gentle Affected several different pieces of art Became less popular when Neoclassicism emerged in France in the late 18 th century Background

Graceful, gentle, fragile Curves followed the lines of natural objects Baroque depicted bravery and courage but Rococo showed aristocracy at play. Unlike past art pieces which had religious aspects, Rococo was secular but spiritual at times Rococo paintings were smaller compared to past ones Bright colors, ornate details, interlaced designs Characterisitics portrayed how Rococo art appealed to the wealthy of France. Its lightness and allure illustrated Rococo as a dream of happiness. Characteristics

Jean-Honoré Fragonard “Young Girl Reading” 1776

Antoine Watteau “Return from Cythera”

Walls, ceilings, and moldings had fragile interlacing of curves based on the letters “C” and “S” Other natural shapes were also included in its form Asymmetrical design was key Light pastels, ivory white, and gold were the predominant colors Mirrors were used to enhance architecture Characteristics of Rococo Architecture
