Neoclassicism (c. 1780 – 1820) A reaction against the frivolity of Rococo Reflects the Enlightenment’s gospel of reason, logic & orderliness Archaeology-mania swept Europe as Pompeii was uncovered (in 1738), influencing art and architecture, thus neoclassicism…. backgrounds include Roman arches and other classical architectural details

Neoclassical Style Precisely drawn, seriously portrayed figures VERY smooth, almost traceless, brushstrokes, so as to seem like the painting is polished Symmetry and straight lines replace the irregular curves of Rococo In architecture, replicas of Greek and Roman temple facades The order and solemnity of the art is meant to inspire and uplift, especially with regard to civic virtues and duty.
