Rococo Sculptures 1700 - 1750

Rococo sculptures from 1700 to 1750 are known for their playful elegance, delicate detail, and lighthearted themes. Unlike the grand, dramatic intensity of the Baroque, Rococo embraced intimacy and charm, often portraying scenes of love, mythology, and leisure with a whimsical touch. Artists such as Étienne-Maurice Falconet and Clodion created works in marble, porcelain, and bronze that featured graceful curves, flowing lines, and finely rendered textures.

These sculptures often depicted flirtatious couples, cherubs, and pastoral scenes, reflecting the refined tastes of the French aristocracy. With their soft, decorative qualities and sense of movement, Rococo sculptures embodied the spirit of pleasure, grace, and ornate beauty.
