This three-talk series covers one of the most dynamic of periods of art history from 1600 to 1750. It was marked by significant upheaval in Europe, characterised by war, colonial expansion and civil unrest. Remarkable advancements in the fields of science and philosophy together with the musical brilliance of composers like Vivaldi, Handel, and Bach created a backdrop for the world of Baroque art to flourish. Supported by the Catholic Church, monarchs, and an emerging middle class, painters like Caravaggio, Rubens, Poussin, Velázquez, and Rembrandt pushed artistic boundaries rarely seen before.
