Slideshow: Miss RococoIntimate and ornate, rococo design has long been associated with feminine taste. Madame de Pompadour, the official mistress of Louis XV, was one of the supreme patrons of the rococo style. In 1990 artist Cindy Sherman pictured herself as Madame de Pompadour, emblazoning her image on a porcelain tureen commissioned by Artes Magnus. rococo, Madame de Pompadour, Louis XV, mistress, patron, Cindy Sherman, image, tureen, Artes Magnus, curvaceous, female, François Boucher, Alphonse Mucha, opportunity, create, domestic sphere, handicrafts, Rococo: The Continuing Curve, Exhibition, women, creators, sensual, organic, sinuous, slides |
