Roman Classicism

Roman Classicism refers to an intellectual and artistic movement inspired by the art, architecture, literature, and values of ancient Rome. It emphasizes clarity, order, symmetry, and enduring qualities, drawing on the Roman emphasis on reason, civic duty, and functional beauty. This style influenced Western art and architecture from the Renaissance through the Enlightenment, promoting ideals of harmony and proportion. Roman Classicism seeks to emulate the dignity and stability associated with classical Roman ideals, applying their principles to create timeless works that reflect rationality, discipline, and cultural continuity.
