Baroque Art Slides # 19-24

Baroque Historical Background: The Baroque came about in Rome near the end of the 16 th century – much of the art was patronized by the Catholic Church during the Counter Reformation. Artists were good at drawing and painting the human figure and reproducing complicated perspective. There is much use of colour and value contrasts in painting. The style is characterized by time (capturing a moment), light (dramatic use of light and shadow called “chiaroscuro”) and space (a sense of occupying space and use of positive and negative space). Italian Baroque – Highly religious and emotional. Influenced by the Counter- Reformation because the Art is meant to help ordinary people connect with the Catholic religion. Patrons: Church, Royalty & Nobility Dutch Baroque – Holland was Protestant and Democratic. They forbade having religious images in Church. Tended to paint still lifes, landscapes and scenes of everyday life. Patrons: middle class

Chiaroscuro – Means “coming out of the darkness.” Often seen as a strong contrast of dark and light values in painting – where light parts seem to emerge from surrounding darkness. Tenebrism – Exaggerated strong contrasts between light and dark seen in late 16th century Italian painting. A more dramatic version of chiaroscuro. Foreshortening – Drawing or painting an object or person that is not parallel to the picture plane. It makes the object or person appear to recede into space – areas closer appear larger; further away appears smaller.
