Read the following description of the Rococo period from Oxford Art Online.

Rococo, style of art and decoration characterized by lightness, grace, playfulness, and intimacy that emerged in France around 1700 and spread throughout Europe in the 18th century. By extension the term is often used simply as a period label—‘the age of Rococo’, referring to the first half of the 18th century. The word was apparently coined in the 1790s by David’s (Links to an external site.) students, wittily combining rocaille (Links to an external site.) and barocco (i.e. Baroque (Links to an external site.)), to refer disparagingly to the taste fashionable under Louis XV. Thus, like so many stylistic labels, it began as a term of abuse, and it long retained its original connotations, implying an art that was, in the words of the Oxford English Dictionary, ‘excessively or tastelessly florid or ornate’. The word was used as a formal term of art history from the middle of the 19th century in Germany, where those followers of Jacob Burckhardt who tried to establish a rhythmic periodicity for the phases of artistic development applied it to the closing and therefore decadent period of any phase. With more recent changes in aesthetic taste the Rococo has come to be seen as one of the major contributions of French designers and artists to the history of European art. 1
