Focusing on the Baroque period, this book gives readers the tools
they need to grasp the architectural language and building forms of
this style. Part of a new, accessibly written, and generously
illustrated series on architecture through the ages, this book
features Baroque's most important architects, buildings and cities,
interior and exterior photographs, detailed images, drawings, and
plans. The book offers a general introduction to Baroque, discusses
the characteristics of the style, and the commonly used techniques
and materials. Originating in the late sixteenth century and
continuing to the early 1900s, Baroque swept the globe, from Europe
to South America. The period is distinguished by complex
architectural shapes designed to heighten emotion and dramatize
experience. Buildings from this period are celebrated for their
grandeur, intricate embellishments, and gilded statuary. Renowned
Baroque architects include Gian Lorenzo Bernini, Francesco
Borromini, and Guariono Guarini.
