The foremost pioneer of Baroque architecture was\u00a0Carlo Maderno, whose masterpiece was the facade of\u00a0Saint Peter’s Basilica. The facade of Saint Peter’s contains a number of typical Baroque elements, including\u00a0double columns,\u00a0layered columns,\u00a0colossal columns, and\u00a0broken pediments. These elements were pioneered during the Late Renaissance, in\u00a0mannerist\u00a0architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

High Baroque 1625-75<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The interiors of baroque churches became more and more present in the High Baroque and focused around the altar, usually placed under the dome. The most celebrated baroque decorative works of the High Baroque are the\u00a0Chair of Saint Peter and the\u00a0Baldachino of St. Peter, both by\u00a0Gian Lorenzo Bernini, in\u00a0St. Peter’s Basilica\u00a0in Rome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By the mid 17th century, the High Baroque style influence spread north of Rome. One of its main influencers being Guarino Guarini, who settled in Turin and is regarded as one of the masters of this style. Especially his executed designs in Paris, Prague, and Lisbon, along with his published works on architectural theory and design, helped spread Italian baroque ideals across Europe in the early 18th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Late Baroque 1675-1725<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Late Baroque marks the rise of\u00a0France\u00a0as the heart of Western culture. Baroque art of France tends to be\u00a0restrained, such that it can be described as a classical-Baroque compromise. The most distinctive element of French Baroque architecture is the double-sloped\u00a0mansard roof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most famous Baroque structures of France are magnificent\u00a0chateaux, the greatest of which is the\u00a0Palace of Versailles. One of the largest residences on earth, Versailles was built mainly under\u00a0Louis XIV, whose patronage of the arts helped propel France to the crest of Western culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The palace facade illustrates the\u00a0classical-Baroque compromise\u00a0of northern Europe. The walls are characterized largely by simple classicism, although they do contain such\u00a0Baroque elements\u00a0as sculpted busts, a triple stringcourse, double pilasters, and colossal pilasters. Additionally, the\u00a0mansard roof\u00a0features a sinuous metal railing and rich molding around the dormer windows. Versailles became Europe’s\u00a0model\u00a0of palace architecture, inspiring similarly grand residences throughout the continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hall of Mirrors (Versailles)

Versailles’ most famous room is the\u00a0Hall of Mirrors, whose mirrors have the same dimensions as the windows they stand opposite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rococo 1725-1800<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Rococo artists embraced the\u00a0curves and elaborate ornament\u00a0of Baroque but reigned in its weighty drama. The result was a\u00a0gentle, playful style\u00a0typified by pastel colors and delicate, asymmetrical decoration. Though most Rococo art was centered in\u00a0France, Rococo architecture culminated in\u00a0Austria and southern Germany, especially in the form of\u00a0churches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
