	History of Art: Baroque and Rococo
		Baroque art was essentially concerned with the dramatic and the illusory, with vivid colours, hidden light sources, luxurious materials, and elaborate, contrasting surface textures, used to heighten immediacy and sensual delight.
		Baroque space, with directionality, movement, and positive molding, contrasted markedly with the static, stable, and defined space of the High Renaissance and with the frustrating conflict of unbalanced spaces of the preceding Mannerist period.
		Attention was focused on the entrance axis or on the central pavilion, and its symmetry was emphasized by the central culmination.
