Rick Steves' Europe
Rick Steves’ Europe: Baroque Art
Season 12 Episode 1209 | 25m 36sVideo has Closed Captions
We marvel at Baroque’s over-the-top churches, palaces, bubbly fountains, and theatric art.
Forged in Europe’s religious struggles, Baroque art inspired the faithful and dazzled the masses. We start in Rome, with its awe-inspiring St. Peter’s, fleshy Bernini statues and bubbly fountains. In Belgium, we see the dramatic canvases of Rubens. And finally: the ultimate Baroque palace, Versailles, with its chandeliered Hall of Mirrors and vast gardens where nobles played as Revolution brewed.
