Baroque.

Baroque style was important for European people from XVII until XVIII centuries. This type of art manifested itself in a variety of things. Painting, architecture, philosophy, music, sculpture, theatre.

Pictures of this era were bright. Example, Still-life by Josefa de Obidos. In Baroque architecture, popular was luxury. Baroque and Classicism have similar features.

Example, the Church of Saint Susanna at the Baths of Diocletain.

Baroque style was big on large premises. Furnitures were big, too. Mirrors with frames, chairs with luxurious backs, huge beds.

In music were popular composers such as Johann Sebastian Bach, Antonio Vivaldi, Claudio Monteverdi.

Fashion of Baroque looked rich. Big dresses and wigs were very popular. Rich women used make up.

P.S. Baroque created a path for modern art.
