Baroque presents an exhibition of energy and a transition from classical restraint. The psychological meaning of the style is not just a formal exercise but shows a transformation of human consciousness. It suggests movement in all its genres.

Flamboyant baroque rulers, popes or kings, held spectacular ceremonies, which transmitted directions for this world theatre.
