The Neo-Classical Tour





This style reached its peak in the late 18th century. It was known as the 'true style' of art. Its tone involved a particular frame of mind: simplicity and moralism served as a reaction against the sensuality that had been popular in previous times. Gone were the romantic figures and luxurious themes, and in came strong virtues, self-sacrifice and simplicity. The Neo-classical revolution in art was part of the revolution against individual values.
