The Louis XVI style (French: style Louis XVI), known in France at the time as Style à la grecque (Greek Style), is an artistic style of decoration and furniture that emerged in France after the Transitional Style, which had appeared as a precursor to the Louis XV (Rococo) style.
It is characterized by dramatic contrasts, elaborate ornamentation, grandeur, and the expression of intense emotions. In framing, the Baroque style often inspired ornate moldings and gilded finishes.
