Baroque Art
► Contrast of very bright and very dark
colors (heaven versus hell)
► Baroque art is associated with the
Counter Reformation.
► Art was to teach religion to the
illiterate, not the well-informed.
► Holland --> Real people were depicted
as the primary subjects. This showed
the economic success of the richest
area in all of Europe.
