Baroque art and architecture, the visual arts and building design and construction produced during the era in the history of Western art that roughly coincides with the 17th century. The earliest manifestations, which occurred in Italy, date from the latter decades of the 16th century, while in some regions, notably Germany and colonial South America, certain culminating achievements of Baroque did not occur until the 18th century. The work that distinguishes the Baroque period is stylistically complex, even contradictory. In general, however, the desire to evoke emotional states by appealing to the senses, often in dramatic ways, underlies its manifestations. Some of the qualities most frequently associated with the Baroque are grandeur, sensuous richness, drama, vitality, movement, tension, emotional exuberance, and a tendency to blur distinctions between the various arts.

This is made for our class reporting,but my professor changed his mind, so maybe it would be of help to others if I share it.
Mannerism (from maniera, manner, or style), the artistic style prevailed in Italy from the end of the High Renaissance in the 1520s until Baroque style 1590. Early Mannerism (c.1520-35) is known for its "anti-classical" or "anti-Renaissance" style, which later evolved into High Mannerism (c.1535-1580), a more intricate, inward-looking, and academic style intended to cater to more sophisticated patrons. The term used for anti-classical indicates that the naturalism painting style is during the high renaissance departure to an artificial and exaggerated painting style, also known as Mannerism.
Giovanni Lorenzo Bernini (December 7, 1598 – November 28, 1680) was a pre-eminent Baroque sculptor and architect of 17th Century Rome.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

1. Baroque Europe
“irregular, oddly shaped”
Or deviated from Renaissance
classical traditions
PATRONS: powerful Courts and
Church in Counter Reformation
campaign
Louis XIV, Hyacinthe Rigaud, 1701,
9’ x 7’
2. HISTORICAL BAROQUE
•Counter Reformation,
Catholic resurgence,
flourishes in Italy, Flanders,
Spain, & France
•Catholic church intent on
fighting the Protestant
reformation efforts; crusade to
finish St. Peters in 1600,
Thirty Years War ended in 1648 glorify saints, miracles, etc.
Protestants vs. Catholics
•Protestants iconoclasts
But also about political, economic, and
social issues as well •Holland very Protestant, still
Courts became powerful-Kings of some religious works but
Spain, England, France, etc. landscapes, portraits, genre
paintings instead
3. Key Ideas - Baroque Art
• Counter reformation fueled religious sculptures
and paintings, especially in Rome, France, &
Flanders, and Spain
• In Holland counter voice Baroque art in Protestant
form (no saints and miracles)
• Baroque artists: experiments with new forms-
landscapes, still life, genre paintings
• Rome still keeper of masterpieces and center of
Religion, but Paris becomes center of artistic
innovation in Europe… thru WWI.
4. St. Peter’s Basilica and Piazza, Vatican, Rome… Maderno designed the façade to
add to Michelangelo’s original design, and Bernini designed the piazza as a relief
from the crowded streets of Rome. Why is the piazza shaped like a key hole?

MANY BAROQUE ARTISTS WERE DEEPLY
RELIGIOUS, SUCH AS RUBENS AND THE
SCULPTURE BERNINI
POPE URBAN VIII COMMISSIONED SOME
OF
GIANLORENZO BERNINI - sculptor, architect
Best work… Such s the Cornaro Chapel
magnificent marble and bronze altar, and the
statue of St. Theres in ecstasy.
9. Baroque Sculpture
Characteristics (ITALY)
•Stressed movement
•Mid motion, mouths open
•sculpture meant to be seen in the
round from different angles
•Marble very tactile-flesh is soft, skin is
polished, wings are feathery, drapery is
drapery
•Inspired by Hellenistic sculpture
•Bernini’s DAVID from 1623… marble,
life size (FLASHCARD)
•Mid-action swinging the slingshot
•Harp = role as psalmist
•Multiple views
•Use of negative space
10. This is a flashcard
WHAT IS IT?
Sculptural interpretation of St
Theresa’s diary, tells of
visions of god, angel plunging
arrows in to her.
Rays of god light behind
Sexual exhaustion?
Stage like setting
Natural light from hidden
window above the work
11. ARTEMISIA GENTILESCHI… Judith & Maidservant with the Head of Holofernes,
and Judith and Holofernes, 1625, 6 ft x 4 1/2 ft… tenebrism, drama, strong
diagonals, female empowerment… remember she was raped by her tutor and had
to stand trial to prove her innocence.
12. Self Portrait on the Allegory of
Painting, oil on canvas, 38” x 29”,
1630, Artemisia Gentileschi
Dramatic lighting, self portrait
Gentilleschi was a noted female
artist, unusual for that time.
Influenced by Caravaggio
Typical of naturalism school of
Italian Baroque….
NATURALISM (drama, tenebrism,
everyday people) vs.
CLASSICISM of Renaissance
style paintings
13. Calling of St. Matthew, Caravaggio
Oil on Canvas, 1600.. Watch video to
learn more!
Caravaggio: the Power of Art
14.
15. Characteristics of Baroque
Painting in Italy
#3 types popularized, in addition to
traditional religious paintings &
portraiture:
-genre painting
Landscapes
Still lifes
TENEBRISM in this painting
Entombment by Caravaggio, strong
diagonals, everyday figures as they
lower the body of Jesus
Impasto brushwork (thick, textured)
Artists like Caravaggio
MADE RELIGION REAL AND
CLOSE TO HOME
But they were artistically opposed by
classic style painters….
16. In Italy, especially Rome, another school of painters opposed the drama and tenebrism
of Caravaggio & Gentilleschi… CEILING PAINTERS such as Reni wanted to continue
classical trends. Landscapes had a moral to them, not just a pretty picture.
Reni’s fresco is entitled Aurora, and it is on the ceiling of a Palazzo in Rome.
17. Annibale Carracci was a
classicist painter
CLASSICISM VS.
NATURALISM in Italian and
Flemish baroque art
Ceiling of Gallery, Palazzo
Farnese, Rome, 1601
18. Baroque landscapes typically had figures in them and told some kind of moral tale or
had a purpose beyond showing nature’s beauty, as in this oil painting by Carracci.
19. Baroque Art in Flanders
• Northern Flanders largely Protestant, rebelled
against Spanish rule & present day Holland gained
independence
• Southern Flanders (Catholic) returned to direct
Spanish rule under Hapsburg family
• Key painters: Rubens &Van Dyck w/international
clientele & reputations
• Rubens was wealthy, educated, diplomat with
strong religious beliefs
• Rubens studied Caravaggio & encouraged patron,
Duke of Mantua, to buy Death of the Virgin
20. Charles I at the Hunt, oil on
canvas, 9’ x 6’, 1635, Anthony
van Dyck
Van Dyck did many portraits of
the royal family.
Here he diplomatically made
Charles I look TALL.. By having
the figure against the
background, the horse with
bowed head, etc.
21. Raising of the Cross, Peter Paul Rubens, oil on canvas, 1610, Church of St. Walpurga,
Antwerp, Belgium. Continued Flemish tradition of the triptych.. Drama and emotion
inspired by who? (He traveled to Italy to study)…why is this typical Baroque?
22. Henri IV Receiving the Portrait of
Marie de’ Medici, Rubens
Oil on canvas, 13’ x 10’, 1625
Rubens did a series of
ENORMOUS canvases
commissioned by Marie de
Medici, Queen of France…to
commemorate her founding of
the Bourbon dynasty & role as
Queen Regent to son, Louis XV
Rubens is known for his fleshy,
sumptuous female nudes, plump
women still called Rubenesque
today.. His colors inspired by
Titian
Ran large studio w/ assistants,
collaborated with Van Dyck and
Brueghel (descended from
Renaissance Bruegel)
23. Garden of Love, Rubens, oil on canvas…
shows courtly ladies visual & tactile effects of the garden…
24. In France & Flanders, Rubens & Poussin were from rival schools. Rubens was a
naturalist & Poussin was a classicist… followers were called Rubenistes or Poussinistes
French Royal Academy made a system to evaluate painting vs. drawing and grade
master artists… Poussin was stronger in drawing, Rubens in painting & vivid colors
25. Baroque Art in Northern Flanders
The Dutch Golden Age
• Still lifes term coined in
Holland, such as this
painting by Clara Peeters
• Educated, literate Dutch
enjoyed portraits, still
lifes, and genre scenes
• Demand for art & prints
from merchant class,
unlike France & Italy
• Group portraiture also a
Dutch specialty with Still life with flowers, fruit, and
pretzels, Clara Peeters
artists Hals & Rembrandt
26. The Dutch Golden Age,
continued…
• Landscapes such as this
Vermeer were in demand
• Low horizon to show flat
Dutch country side,
canals, and beautiful
skies
View of Delft, 1665, Jan Vermeer
27. The Jewish Cemetery, Jacob van Ruisdael, 1660. Spiritual meanings of the
landscape, vanitas theme? Allegory of transcience, rainbow shows hope.
28. Still Life with a watch, Pieter Claesz. Still li fes often showed a theme of the brief nature
of life and beauty, with hints of death, a wilting flower, a skull, or other reminder..
VANITAS…time passes with the watch? “breakfast piece” like Clara Peeters
29. Officers of the Haarlem Militia Company, Frans Hals, Oil on Canvas, 6’ x 9’, Lively
composition, social event, strong diagonals. Positions reflect their ranking. IMPASTO
technique, very painterly like Velasquez.
30. Self Portrait, Judith Leyster
Originally thought to be
Hals’ painting…
Judith looks confidently
back at the viewer, as does
her subject the fiddler
Caravaggio’s realism,
drama, lighting…
Participated in the Haarlem
Guild and could take
students…
Known for informal scenes
of daily life
Like who in the
Renaissance?
31. REMBRANDT: IMPORTANT
DUTCH BAROQUE ARTIST
•Known for psychologically intense
portraits (self portrait here from
1658)
•Internalized spirituality, reflected
suffering & personality
•In his later works, realism relates
to the spirit of inner meaning not
surface details
•Studied under Lastman, a history
painter who’d worked in Rome
•Learned tenebrism, naturalism,
drama
•Interested in both science and
faith.
•Like Rubens, used assistants and
ran large workshops.
32. Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Tulp, Rembrandt, 1632. Rembrandt transforms Hals’ group
portrait into a dramatic narrative… Cadaver is shockingly green while students lean
forward to study the anatomy of the arm.
TENEBRISM: white collars emphasis the dramatic lighting
33. The Night Watch (Captain Frans Banning Cocq Mustering His Company):
commissioned group portrait @ narrative…girl w/chicken may be company mascot
Originally known as Night Watch, name remains today, but it was cleaned and is not as
dark today.
35. Jan Vermeer genre
paintings&portrait such as
The Girl with the Pearl Earring
Notice the lighting
Believed to have used a
“camera oscura”
Still meditative paintings with
single source of light

36. Woman Holding a Balance
Jan Vermeer
1664
Metaphor for eternal
judgment

39. Water Carrier of Seville, Diego
Velazquez
Oil on canvas, 41” x 31”, 1619
Early work of Velasquez shows
intense interest in Caravaggio
tenebrism
Deceptively simple genre scene-
sacred quality about the expressions,
the clear water, handing over glass
Water jug is masterfully rendered
40. Juan de Pareja, Diego
Velazquez
Oil on canvas,
Velasquez was court
painter to King of Spain,
genius portraitist.
Went to Italy to paint the
Pope and wasn’t as
recognized
Painted Pope Innocent
41. "Velazquez evidently decided
to paint a portrait that would
show the Romans what he
could do. He chose as his
subject his assistant and friend,
Juan de Pareja (c. 1610-70).
Amazingly, this man was
technically a slave; we still
have the document of
manumission with which
Velazquez formally set him
free. However, we can see
from Velazquez painting that
the two were undeniably
equals. That steady look of
self-controlled power can even
make us wonder which of the
two held a higher opinion of
himself. It is a daring picture in
that it almost eschews the use
of color. This is a dark man,
with wonderful coppery skin,
set against an indeterminate
background, where even the
rich velvets of the sleeves
appear dim."
42. • Is this Pope
Pope Innocent X innocent?
• How does
Velasquez
capture his
personality
?
44. The Surrender at Breda, The Lances, Oil on Canvas, 10’ x 12’, 1634-35
Depicts 1625 victory of Spanish over Dutch in Breda
Graciousness of Spanish victors, more dignified, organized
