Classicism

Classicism is a form of art that is inspired by the art and culture of ancient Greece and Rome. Classicist art has exact proportions, clean lines, and restrained use of color, focusing on such elements as beauty, symmetry, and order. Further, classical works of art often radiate a sense of composed dignity although they depict mythological themes, historical occurrences, and even personalities. Classicism has formed an eternal style and restraint that elevates one's spirit. Collectors of classical art appreciate its nod to antiquity and its celebration of beauty and intellect.
