Why was the Rococo period and style of art so unique?
Rococo is that period of art and architecture when artists and those who built buildings went totally wild with their use of frills, gold, gaudy paintings and elaborate trims around doors and windows. One can immediately pick out a building that is Rococo because it is so elaborate, it has so many flourishes and it has very few straight lines beyond what is absolutely necessary. Gold and bright colors are everywhere and there are perfect little cherub/babies for angels and designs that look like they belong more in a whore house than in churches.
