Art Movement Baroque
The Baroque art movement emerged in Europe in the late 16th century and lasted until the early 18th century. Characterized by its dramatic use of light and shadow, as well as its emphasis on emotion and movement, Baroque art often depicted grandiose scenes with intense energy and theatricality. Artists of the Baroque period sought to evoke strong emotional responses from viewers through their use of dynamic compositions, vivid colors, and intricate details. This period is known for its ornate and elaborate style, exemplified by the works of artists such as Caravaggio, Bernini, and Rubens.
