Artists like Judith Leyster, Frans Hals, Jacob van Ruisdael, and Jan Vermeer helped establish and develop these new genres.

Key Baroque artists included Caravaggio known for realistic depictions of emotion and lighting effects, Rembrandt a leading Dutch painter noted for compositions like "The Night Watch", Rubens who emphasized movement and sensuality in works like "The Fall of Man", Velázquez the leading Spanish artist with complex works like "Las Meninas", and Poussin who brought order and clarity to mythological scenes such as "Venus and Adonis".

Key Pre-Raphaelite artists mentioned include John Everett Millais, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, William Holman Hunt, Edward Burne-Jones, William Morris, John William Waterhouse, and G. E. Robertson, known for works such as Ophelia, Mariana, Ferdinand & Ariel, La Belle Dame Sans Merci, and The Lady of Shalott.
Baroque
Baroque art originated in Rome in the late 16th century as a style that glorified Catholicism and absolute monarchs in response to the Protestant Reformation. Baroque art is characterized by grandeur, drama, movement, and vibrant colors in large-scale works. Key artists included Bernini, whose sculptures exemplified drama and movement, and Rubens, whose paintings depicted religious scenes with theatrical flourishes. Caravaggio introduced greater realism through life-like figures and tenebrism techniques. In Protestant Holland, Baroque art focused on realistic genre paintings, portraits, landscapes and still lifes for the bourgeois class rather than public religious works.

A diplomat and scholar, his intelligent use of iconography was never rivalled, perfectly matching allusions to a patron’s aspirations, while his emotive religious works were actively intended as part of the Catholic armoury against the onslaught of the Protestant Reformation

Baroque Period
Abstract
The following paper will discuss three works of religious art from the Baroque period. The three works of art, The Conversion on the Way to Damascus, by Caravaggio, The Four Continents, by Peter Paul Rubens, and Descent from the Cross, by Rembrandt will be discussed in length including their similarities and different in styles, techniques, form, etc. and their impact on 17th Century society.
Baroque Period
The Baroque Period began in Italy in the beginning of the 18th Century in response to the Protestant reformation. The Catholic Church in an attempt to stop the spread of the Protestant religion created the Council of Trent whose job was to reeducate Catholic followers about their faith through religious art depicting direct and dramatic scenes from the Bible. The scenes were painted with dramatic color schemes and using intense contracts between dark and light. This gave the art a vibrant and extravagant quality. The Baroque Period produced beautiful pieces of work such as, The Conversion on the Way to Damascus, by Caravaggio, The Four Continents, by Peter Paul Rubens, and Descent from the Cross, by Rembrandt.
Section B
The goal of the Baroque period was to show the greatness of God and express his power. Each piece of art created was a divine expression of his greatness and an affirmation of his holy power. The Conversion on the Way to Damascus, by Caravaggio was painted in 1601. The painting depicts a scene in the Bible that represents Saul’s conversion that occurred on the road towards Damascus. The scene shows Saul on the ground with a groom and horse hovering above him. As Saul is on the ground he hears the voice of Christ in his mind and is struck temporarily blind. Christ is asking him why he has forsaken him and will later become one of Jesus disciples. Caravaggio, 1601
The painting is clearly is the Baroque style because it is vibrant and larger than life. The painting has one key figure which is Saul. He is laying flat on his back with his arms outstretched. A groom holds Saul’s horse and stares down at the man lying on the ground with a concerned look. The art clearly depicts a scene of the divine and uses vibrant colors to give a dramatic effect. The outstretched arms of Saul seem to be reaching out to the heavens either asking for forgiveness or trying to accept the holiness of Christ into his being.
The second painting chosen from the Baroque period is The Four Continents, by Peter Paul Rubens. The painting was created during the Baroque Period and depicts the spread of Catholicism across the four continents. The painting depicts four women clinging to four men who represent the four great rivers while the four women depict the four different continents at the time. The four rivers are the Danubi, Nile, Ganges, and Rio de la Plata rivers while the four women represent England ...
