(Excerpts from an essay I had written a year ago comparing Rococo and Neoclassical. If you’d like to know any of the books I used as references, please let me know. I’m only including certain parts of the essay. I hope to revisit it in a future art history class, as I think it would be a lot of fun to expand on.)
