классицизм
The terms classic or classical came into use in the seventeenth century to describe the arts and culture of the ancient civilisations of Greece and Rome. Classicism in art is to make reference in later work to the ancient classic styles. For example the classicism of Reynolds. Classical mythology consists of the various myths and legends of the ancient Greek and Roman gods and heroes. From the Renaissance on this became a major source of subject matter for History painting. Also from Renaissance, classicism was all-pervasive in Western art and went through myriad transformations.
