What era saw a revival of interest in Bouguereau's work?

  • The 1920s

  • The 1940s

  • The 1960s

  • The 1980s

Answer

The revival of interest in Bouguereau's work occurred during the 1980s. This renewed attention can be attributed to a shift in artistic preferences towards more traditional and representational styles, a reaction against the dominance of abstract and conceptual art that had characterized much of the preceding decades. Bouguereau's technically accomplished and visually appealing paintings resonated with audiences seeking a return to more figurative and narrative-based art.
