The age of the Rococo, an age of music, carefree life and of great art; the music of Bach, Mozart and Handel; the painting of Fragonard and Watteau; the spectacular architecture of Balthasar Neumann and the brothers Zimmerman; a period of intimacy and of flirtation; a happy, fleeting moment between Baroque grandeur and the Age of Reason.
