Baroque art

Brought to you by Smarthistory. Stone becomes flesh and ceilings dissolve into the infinity of heaven—artists such as Bernini, Caravaggio, Rubens, Velazquez and Rembrandt were masters of drama and illusion.

Rococo

Brought to you by Smarthistory. Overgrown gardens heavy with the scent of roses, palaces and luxury; the artists Watteau, Boucher, and Fragonard typify the aristocratic style known as Rococo.

Neo-Classicism

British art in the 18th century
