Additional Information

Style: Barocchetto (1720-1770)

This term, specifically regarding furniture, refers to a portion of the production carried out in Italy between the Rococo era and the first phase of Neoclassicism. It is characterized by a formal and decorative structure still rigidly adhering to the dictates of the Baroque period (hence the term barocchetto) and the fashions of Louis XIV. However, it reflects the new era in the adoption of smaller volumes and more elegant decorative modules, often directly inspired by French fashion, but always executed with rigorous principles of ornamental symmetry. The tendency to assimilate formal and volumetric innovations but not to adopt their ornamental elaboration can be explained in Italy by the fact that the great aristocracy was experiencing an unstoppable political and economic decline during this century. While in the previous century, a great profusion of furnishings was created to adorn newly built homes, proudly displaying the power of the patron family, in the 18th century, the emphasis was on updating the palace with only the furniture strictly necessary to meet the new demands imposed by fashion or functional needs. The old scenography is maintained, and the new must not clash too much.
