Rococo - Rococo style

 

Rococo is an artistic and architectural style that originated in France in the early 18th century. It is characterized by its ornate and decorative features, including intricate designs, pastel colors, and an emphasis on curves and asymmetry. Rococo art and design often depict themes of romance, nature, and fantasy, and it is known for its lightness and playfulness.

Rococo architecture is recognized for its use of elaborate ornamentation and graceful, flowing lines. This style can be seen in the interiors of many European palaces and aristocratic homes of the time.
