How rococo art compares with baroque art?
Rococo came in response to Neoclassicism, as well as a continuation of the Baroque style. Rococo and Baroque styles related much more to shapes and fluidity than they did to figures or scenes. Baroque paintings were ominous, otherworldly, and dark in subject. Rococo was infamous for its superfluous decoration and extraordinary detail. Rococo was full of fluid and curved lines. There was an intentional overload of every last quality of the Rococo time period. Rococo was also noted for having light, curves, playfulness, and decor.
