Painting by Anna Maria Ehrenstral (Allegedly Sweden’s first female painter)
Can you see that this is supposed to be a child?

Florence Court in Northern Ireland with some beautiful Rococo style ceiling decoration!
After visiting this year, I would definitely recommend 😊 It’s a great place to visit on a day out, there are other examples of Rococo design inside the house too 😊✨

What is the thickest, fattest book of Rococo paintings I can buy?
Also, suggestions for books on women artists in Rococo?

attempt at rococo designs! i’m a beginner looking for criticism :)
hope this is the right sub reddit and i can find people who are more experienced in this kind of art to give me pointers and maybe even sources on where to learn more about it! this is my first real attempt at this, so it’s far from perfect and definitely more stylized, but please let me know what you think! be harsh if you must lol :) it is still a work in progress, so any criticism will be used to tweek it

Robe à la française
The typical dress with corset and panniers (side extensions to create a bell effect) was called robe á la française. This one in nymphemburg gardens reminds me a lot watteau fetês galantes

Tiepolo worked in northern Italy and less in Germany : wurzburg and Dießen collegiate.

The most prolific fresco painters are Gunther, Zeiller, Spiegler and Bergmuller. Zimmermann and Asam did great works but in small numbers mostly in Bavaria and Upper Swabia.
Note: some of these artists are unknown beyond german world borders. Therefore if you want to make researches, I recommend writing "freskomaler" after their name.
