Baroque portrayed space as a twist and spiral in space
Baroque art has more emotion and is very dramatic. There is a lot of movement and energy, unlike mannerism/Renaissance art which is controlled and idealistic. While both are very decorative, baroque art is much more realistic that mannerism. Another characteristic of baroque art is there is a lot of symmetry and 3D shapes. Extremes of light are used.

Baroque art portrayed its subjects as larger-than-life, over-the-top, and ostentatious. Especially in France, royal portraiture in the Baroque period was a kind of propaganda designed to impress the general populace with their monarch's physical beauty, wealth, and power. Chiaroscuro, or clair-obscur, is a term heavily associated with Baroque art. Meaning "light-shadow," chiaroscuro refers to the dramatic play of light and dark in a work of art. This technique is seen very clearly in the art of Caravaggio.

A baroque sonata is anything instrumental. It evolved into the "triosonata," which was 4 instruments played as 3 layers or lines. The soprano and base were very contrasting, in order to create polarity. The harpsichord is very characteristic of the Baroque sonata. AN example would be Corelli's Opus 1.
