the use of bright colors.

inclusion of volutes and forms of acanthus
leaves and with jocular motifs and
asymmetrical organic forms.

 Neoclassicism
To draw the style and forms of Neoclassicism we have
to rely on three characteristics: aesthetics, simplicity
and symmetry. The works in this period are based on
day-to-day social issues.
Above all are situations in which the people unite to
face the power that had them enslaved. It can be said
that Neoclassicism relies a little more on reason and
freedom, leaving feelings a little more apart.
