Reasoning:

The Rococo style of design originated in 1701 at Versailles. An engraver named Pierre Le Pautre worked with architect Jules Hardouin-Mansart to redesign Louis XIV’s apartments. Here, Le Pautre used design elements like inset panels with gilded woodwork, and S- or C-shaped lines on white walls and ceilings, highly ornamental, asymmetrical designs, white and pastel colors, and sculpted moldings. The overall effect was a light, airy feeling.

Rococo was a movement that stemmed from the Baroque period in early 18th-century Paris. Similar to the style of design, Rococo painting featured soft colors, curvy lines, and an air of frivolity. The word “rococo” is derived from the French word rocaille, which signified a shell-covered rock work used to decorate artificial grottoes.
