Answer:

Key Features of Mannerist Art:

- Break with the classic style of idealized beauty.

- Retraction of figures in elongated and serpentine shape.

- Use of colors that do not faithfully represent nature. The colors used in much of the mannerist works are cold, strange and artificial.

- Presence of multiple points of view, a feature widely used in sculptures.

- Presence of profane and religious themes.

- Valorization of intellectual knowledge in the elaboration of works of art.

- Presence of beauty, elegance, grace and ornamental features.

- Disregard of proportionality and perspective.

- Highlight for subjective effects and presence of strong emotional expressions.
