MAPEH 9 Second Quarter: Famous Baroque Artists.JOANABESORETA1
This document summarizes information about three famous Baroque artists: Peter Paul Rubens, Rembrandt, and Diego Velasquez. Rubens was a Flemish painter known for his paintings of mythical subjects and landscapes. His famous works included Samson and Delilah and The Three Graces. Rembrandt was a brilliant Dutch painter and etcher, considered one of the greatest in European art. His most well-known work was his Self Portrait in Old Age.

Raja Ravi Varma was considered one of the greatest painters in Indian art history. His paintings fused Indian traditions with techniques of European academic art. He was the first Indian artist to depict Indian gods and mythological characters in natural, earthy settings using European realism. Some of his famous works included scenes from the Ramayana and Mahabharata as well as portraits and regional art. He was exceptionally skilled at portraying light, shadow, and emotion. Raja Ravi Varma influenced Indian art until his death in 1906.
The Baroque art style originated in Italy in the 1600s and spread throughout Europe. It was promoted by the Catholic Church to depict dramatic and emotional religious scenes through paintings, sculptures and architecture. Baroque art is characterized by movement, deep colors, contrasts between light and dark, and emotionally intense scenes sometimes showing multiple emotions. Some famous Baroque artists and works mentioned include Caravaggio's Conversion of St. Paul, Bernini's Ecstasy of St. Teresa, Rubens' Four Continents, and Rembrandt's Descent from the Cross.
The Royal Academies of Art established state control over artistic production in France and England in the 17th-18th centuries. They dictated standards and conventions through annual salon exhibitions, training methods that emphasized copying classical sculptures and paintings over nature, and a hierarchy of genres that ranked history painting highest. This system promoted ideals of beauty and style over realism until the Realists and Impressionists rebelled in the 19th century.
