The document discusses the history and periods of Renaissance architecture from the 15th to 17th centuries. It began as a revival of classical Greco-Roman architectural styles and progressed through three periods - the early Renaissance focused on proportion and geometry; the high Renaissance saw grandeur and harmony; and mannerism brought more experimentation with forms and complex details. Key developments included the emergence of secular palaces over religious buildings and the influence of classical orders like Corinthian columns.
The building style of the Baroque era, begun in late 16th-century Italy, that took the Roman vocabulary of Renaissance architecture and used it in a new theatrical fashion, often to express the triumph of the Catholic Church and the absolutist state.
It was characterized by new explorations of form, light and shadow, and dramatic intensity.
