Explanation:

(I'm also taking Art Appreciation)

The Baroque style became popular in France in the mid-to-late 1600s, a time when the country was rich and powerful.

The Rococo period followed shortly after. Although it was different in many ways, it maintained the Baroque tastes for bright, extravagant paintings of picturesque scenes. (You will learn more about both of these periods later on.)

Only the upper classes were actually rich and comfortable, but they had no interest in the real life of the lower classes and certainly didn't want to see it in art. They much preferred imagining the lower classes as sweet, innocent people who spent all day lazing in fields alongside their farm animals.
