Hi Yes, the word is fine. 'Taste of the day' can be used very generally to mean 'what people liked at that time' In the last phrase, I think you need '... taken on new direction' Dave

Hi
As a sentence, I think it is OK grammatically. Personally - and this is just my view - I would lose some of the words. Perhaps:
- In the Qajar time, the artistic spirit and the prevailing taste in paintings changed
