Rococo refers to a style of interior design that was very popular in 18th century Europe. "Rococo rooms were designed as total works of art with elegant and ornate furniture, small sculptures, ornamental mirrors, tapestries, wall paintings, reliefs, and complementing architecture." ~Straight from Wikipedia.A rococo antique would probably be any one of the above items. :)
Antoine Watteau demonstrated characteristics of rococo art in his paintings by incorporating curving lines and decorative nature. He painted with the ornate elegance attributed to the rococo art seen in architecture, furniture, and sculpture.
Yes, Neoclassicism was indeed a reaction to Rococo art. Rococo art was characterized by lavish decoration, asymmetry, and a focus on frivolity and luxury. Neoclassicism, on the other hand, was a revival of classical art and architecture from ancient Greece and Rome, emphasizing simplicity, harmony, and order. Neoclassicism sought to return to the ideals of classical art and move away from the excesses of Rococo.
Rococo "Late Baroque", is an 18th-century artistic movement and style, affecting many aspects of the arts including painting, sculpture, architecture, interior design, decoration, literature, music, and theatre. It developed in the early 18th century in Paris, France as a reaction against the grandeur, symmetry, and strict regulations of thebaroque, especially of the Palace of Versailles Rococo artists and architects used a more jocular, florid, and graceful approach to the Baroque. Their style was ornate and used light colours, asymmetrical designs, curves, and gold. Unlike the political Baroque, the Rococo had playful and witty themes. The interior decoration of Rococo rooms was designed as a total work of art with elegant and ornate furniture, small sculptures, ornamental mirrors, and tapestry complementing architecture, reliefs, and wall paintings.source: Wikipedia
