Caravaggio and Rembrandt
Baroque Visual Art
Power of Church and Monarchies partially restoredExcess ornamentation valuedRome became an artistic centerArt filled with emotion/dramaRealism instead of idealismChiaroscuro – play of light and dark and shadows –
helps set a dramatic mood – Kept from Renaissance and used to create intense drama
Baroque Period Basics
ItalianPraised for his outstanding detail in paintingCondemned for several reasons:
Personal life – violent, aggressive and confrontational - killed an individual in Rome – consistently jailed
Works were not modest/very violent – excessive/unnecessary nudity - didn’t celebrate beauty as was the norm for art
Many felt his works lacked theological correctness – especially in the Death of the Virgin – The church loved his skill and he was the primary painter for the church– eventually excommunicated due to conflicts with the church – “The Antichrist of Painting”
Caravaggio
One of best known Baroque artistsDutch (native to the Netherlands)Developed revolutionary technique
Use of large amount of paint Use of fewer brushstrokes Made paintings almost seem unfinished (clear and formal looking
from a distance)Painted many landscapes and made etchings about nature in the
1630s Many featured trees that had been blown over/very dark cloudy skies
Rembrandt
1640 works became more solemnFeatured family tragedies he had suffered
1650s his style changed againRicher colorsStronger brushstrokes moved him further from fine
detailLast years he focused on self portraits that showed
his grief and sorrow that he had suffered (many consider these to be his finest paintings)
Rembrandt Cont.
Bach and Handel
Baroque Music
Like in visual arts, emotion was very importantMost patrons were nobles from state or churchLittle thought of preservation of music
Musicians saw themselves as employees rather than artists and created on demand
Music specific to the occasionFew musicians kept their music – preservation usually
depended on the patron retaining the workSocially, music was created independently for the
event – often for festivals, weddings, ceremonies, the church, and holidays
