This catalogue lists the major Baroque and Rococo painters and related styles.
Baroque painting evolved from the stylistic innovations of the Renaissance, expanding experiments with perspective and naturalistic representation. The work of the Baroque painters is often marked by highly dramatic scenes, rich color, and a keen sense of personal psychology. Rococo painting drew its inspiration from the French aristocracy, incorporating mythology and romance into sensuous, graceful portraits. Rococo painters such as Watteau, Boucher and Gainsborough offered a rose-colored peek into the private lives of Europe's elite, painting them in delicate colors and mischievous lines.
