What to look for

Neoclassicism: Rococo before it is playful and pastel; Romanticism, its contemporary rival, prefers loose brushwork, rich colour and strong emotion.

Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi ( bar-T(H)OL-dee, French:; 2 August 1834 – 4 October 1904) was a French sculptor and painter. He is best known for designing Liberty Enlightening the World, commonly known as the Statue of Liberty, in New York City, United States. Wikipedia
