Mannerism
Many of these explorations in subject and color are considered examples of <anchor>Mannerism</anchor>, an evolution of style around the end of High Renaissance classicism. Mannerist tropes are already evident in mature works by Leonardo, Raphael, and Michelangelo, but Agnolo Bronzino’s An Allegory with Venus and Cupid(1544–45) displays the eroticism and obscure allegories that define the genre.

# Mannerism

## About

Applied to a style of Italian art practiced between roughly 1520 and 1590—from the end of the High Renaissance to the beginning of the [Baroque](/gene/baroque)—which began in Rome and Florence and eventually spread north into other areas of Europe. Generally understood as a response to the classical order and idealization of the [Renaissance](/gene/renaissance), Mannerism is characterized by a greater emphasis on style and technique, as well as artificial and sometimes bizarre compositions, in which figures could have elongated limbs and appear in difficult poses involving dramatic contortions.
