drawfag here.I've noticed at looking at baroque art, that there was a sudden change between 1750-1850 where the classical world, in most senses of the baroque and renaissance was replaced by a more modern style of painting and architecture and fashion.It could be a coincidence, but can't stop thinking it coincides too much in the same period frame as the mudflood theory.Europeans went from baroque costumes to imperial simplistic ones during the time of the mudflood.

>>541643659I always thought it was a bit later, the impressionist movement, surrealism which ultimately led to modern art as a response to the photography crisis. If photography can capture portraits and landscapes better than an artist, and they can even add artistic flourishes what is the point of painting? The photography industry was advertising this way and it was a serious issue at the time. So that’s when art became much more about feeling and impression versus accuracy and technical mastery
