Rococo
Artists associated with the Age of Enlightenment rejected the rigid conventions and emotionalism of Baroque art, favoring instead reason, clarity, and harmony. They emphasized rationality and the exploration of human experience, often drawing inspiration from classical antiquity. This shift led to a greater focus on realism and the depiction of everyday life, as well as an interest in scientific and philosophical themes. Overall, Enlightenment artists sought to elevate human intellect and moral values through their works.
