French Baroque and Classicism

Okay kiddo, let's talk about French Baroque and Classicism.

First, let's start with the Baroque period. This was a time in history when people liked to decorate everything with lots of fancy details and make things look very grand and impressive. In France, this style was especially popular in the 17th century (1600s).

Now, let's talk about Classicism. This is a different style that came after the Baroque period, in the 18th century (1700s). During this time, people were more interested in simplicity and balance. They were inspired by ancient Greek and Roman art, which was very clean and elegant.

So, to sum it up, French Baroque was all about being fancy and having lots of decorations, while Classicism was more about being simple and balanced. People liked one style for a while, and then they decided they liked the other style better later on. It's all a matter of personal taste and what's popular at the time!
