Baroque Painting
Baroque painting placed great importance on perspective, but also on the play of light underlined by pastel colours. Exclusively decorative at the outset, the works of this period are nevertheless characterised by a direct break with the history of art. Unlike Renaissance painting, which chose to show a moment preceding an important scene, Baroque art depicts the dramatic moment in the story, while the main action is taking place. This style of painting emphasises the emotion and passion of an act, rather than its rational side.
The Baroque style, which flourished between the 16th and 18th centuries, is characterised by decorative overload, exaggerated movement, dramatic tension and grandeur.

The Baroque movement is represented by renowned painters such as Rubens and Van Dyck. Rembrandt's work is a perfect illustration of this brilliant art, which cultivates paradoxes and contrasts. If you like chiaroscuro, you'll be delighted by the reproduction of the painting "The Philosopher in Meditation". But if you're looking for a brighter décor, think of Rubens, and his work rich in warm tones.
