The movement into Rococo art un the Eighteenth Century was pushed forward by the Death of Louis the 14th. Nobility then moves into the city causing a shift from architectures focus from the outside to inside of buildings. The Hotel Particulier is a good example of this housing many detailed decorations in its interior, many of which are naturalistic. In comparison to the Hall of Mirrors this space is lighter, homier, and airier. It is a space made for private living. This is a great example of the Rococo style. This style seems to be dominant today in modern living where decorations of modern architecture are often kept inside the house where the outside structure is mainly utilitarian. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another example of the Rococo style as well as Rubenist philosophy which held a greater importance for color and emotions was A Pilgrimage to Cytheria<\/em>. It lacked the lines of the opposing Pousinist perspective and instead had softer splotchy colors. This work shows a multitude of couples leaving Cytheria during a sunset. Pouties are flying around them. They are disappointed and are longing for their time there as shown by the lady in the middle of the work. She is glancing back longingly showing the escapist movement which was pervasive at the time. It is the idea of leaving reality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The Swing <\/em>is a good example of Bouduour painting. It shows a man looking up at his mistress on a swing with a Biship pushing her. The suggestive angle at which he is looking is representative of Bouduor painting. A boudoir was a private room for woman in which things like this would be hung. The girl seems to be the focal point as she is the brightest point in a warmly colored work. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The movement into Rococo art un the Eighteenth Century was pushed forward by the Death of Louis the 14th.
