Following the grandeur of Baroque, Rococo art is
often dismissed as frivolous and unserious, but
Waldemar Januszczak disagrees. […] The first
episode is about travel in the 18th century and how
it impacted greatly on some of the finest art ever
made. The world was getting smaller and took on
new influences shown in the glorious Bavarian
pilgrimage architecture, Canaletto's romantic
Venice and the blossoming of exotic designs and
tastes all over Europe.
