We've reached the Baroque period in my art history class. Probably my favorite period after the High Renaissance. I like realistic art. Being able to accurately portray the emotion of the human form in art is what both amazes me and eludes my talent as an artist.
Bernini's sculpture is unbelievable.
I'm looking forward to the new Angels and Demons movie. The setting of which (in case you've been living under a rock for the last few years) is Vatican City. Many of the famous landmarks mentioned in the book were completed during the Baroque period.
