Explain the use of art as an embodiment of counter reformation goals during the Baroque Age?

Counter-reformation art was meant to draw people back to Catholicism. They embodied the dramatic and whimsy, using extremely realistic details and also emphasized modesty. Some great examples of Counter-Reformation Art would be Gian Bernini's sculptures. They are so intricate and truly capture their goals, look up his sculptures "The Ecstasy of St. Theresa", "David", "Apollo", and "The Rape of Persephone", which is my favorite sculpture of his.


How did the Protestant Reformation and the Catholic Counter-Reformation affect the arts?

The Protestant Reformation led to a shift in artistic focus, emphasizing personal faith and scripture over ornate religious imagery, as many Protestant denominations rejected the veneration of saints and elaborate altarpieces. This resulted in a rise in genre painting and portraiture, reflecting everyday life and individualism. In contrast, the Catholic Counter-Reformation embraced art as a means of conveying religious messages and evoking emotional responses, leading to the Baroque style characterized by dramatic, dynamic compositions and a focus on spirituality. Overall, both movements significantly influenced the themes, styles, and purposes of art during this period.
