Expressionism
Baroque Art refers to an artistic style that originated in Italy during the late 16th and early 17th centuries, characterized by its dynamic energy, dramatic intensity, and rich ornamentation. It emerged as a response to the Counter-Reformation movement within the Catholic Church, which sought to reassert its authority through grandiose displays of art and architecture. Baroque Art is known for its emphasis on naturalism, with figures depicted in lifelike poses and expressive gestures. The use of strong contrasts between light and shadow (chiaroscuro) creates a sense of depth and volume, while bold colors and intricate textures add to the overall visual impact. Baroque Art encompasses a wide range of mediums, including painting, sculpture, and architecture, and its influence can be seen in works by artists such as Caravaggio, Peter Paul Rubens, and Gian Lorenzo Bernini.
