Discover the dramatic world of Italian Baroque and the artists who turned painting, sculpture, and architecture into powerful experiences.
In this class, we will explore how Baroque art emerged in Italy in the 17th century and why artists began creating works filled with movement, emotion, theatrical light, and illusion. We will look at how the Catholic Church, powerful patrons, and the cities of Rome and Florence shaped this new artistic language.

A clear understanding of the origins and development of Italian Baroque
Knowledge of the major Baroque artists and their most important masterpieces
