Baroque Architecture
Baroque architecture is a tradition that developed in seventeenth-century Rome, using light, movement, and coordinated decoration to shape churches and palaces. Bernini and Borromini developed expressive approaches to architectural space and its relationship with sculpture and ornament. Under Louis XIV, the Palace of Versailles linked royal residence, ceremony, and landscape within a larger architectural setting.
