Why these artist were a good example of Baroque
style in my opinion.
  • These two artists both exaggerated motion and
    clear, easily interpreted detail.
  • They both produce drama, tension, exuberance,
    and grandeur from sculpture, painting,
    literature, and music.
  • Their styles both started around 1600 in Rome,
    Italy and spread to most of Europe
  • Their popularity and success of the Baroque was
    encouraged by the Catholic Church.
