The Baroque Peirod originated in Rome and is associated with the Catholic Counter- Reformation. The Catholic Church was reforming and so was the art. Art and achitecture of this time was very realistic and grand; elaborate. It appealed to their sensenes. The scientific advances and exploration during this time ledd to the Age of Enlightenment. This dynamic style shows energy, grandure, exageration, and intinse emotion.
