French art
French art refers to the visual arts produced in France or by French artists. It encompasses a wide range of styles, movements, and periods, reflecting the country's rich cultural history and its influence on the global art scene.
History[edit]
Medieval Art[edit]
French art in the Middle Ages was characterized by the development of Romanesque art and Gothic art. Notable examples include the Bayeux Tapestry and the cathedrals of Notre-Dame de Paris and Chartres Cathedral.
Renaissance[edit]
The French Renaissance was marked by the influence of Italian artists and the adoption of Humanism. Key figures include Jean Clouet, François Clouet, and Jean Fouquet.
Baroque and Rococo[edit]
During the Baroque period, French art was dominated by the works of artists such as Nicolas Poussin and Claude Lorrain. The Rococo style, characterized by its ornate and decorative qualities, was exemplified by artists like Jean-Honoré Fragonard and François Boucher.
Neoclassicism[edit]
The Neoclassical movement in France was a reaction against the excesses of Rococo. It was inspired by the art and culture of ancient Greece and Rome. Prominent artists include Jacques-Louis David and Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres.
Romanticism[edit]
Romanticism in French art emphasized emotion and individualism. Key figures include Eugène Delacroix and Théodore Géricault.
