The Palace of Versailles is often described as a testament to the glory and power of the French royal court. Why did Louis XIV and his architects build this massive complex of buildings and gardens? What are some of the specific messages it is intended to send? The gardens of Versailles are arguably as significant as the buildings. How do the gardens reinforce the message of the building and interior decoration? What were some of Andre le Notre’s innovations at Versailles?
The Rococo style very much represents a continuation and elaboration of the artistic virtues first articulated by Louis XIV. Based on the two short video lectures and your textbook, what virtues are artists celebrating during the Rococo period? How specifically are artists such as Fragonard creating a utopian vision for the aristocracy? Finally turn your attention to the essay on the artist Greuze in part 2 of the outside content. How does Greuze represent a very DIFFERENT side of the 18th century? What values and virtues are being celebrated in his work? How does this reflect some of the political and philosophical upheavals (perhaps even revolutions) happening at this time?
