The Baroque period started in the 17th century to the 18th century.
The desire for better simplification inspired the artists, with the subjective distortion and colours. Believable activities were drawn from everyday life. The Baroque classicism stayed significant throughout the century. Most common characteristics of the 17th century art were its, exuberance, unrestrained energy, emotionalism and theatricality.
The 17th century is called the first modern age. There were various scientific discoveries that had influenced art; like Galileo's search for the planets, for example, the paintings of astronomical accuracy in lots of paintings. Astronomer Copernicus said that the planets weren't revolving around the earth, this was only accepted after 1600. Religion made the many aspects of this type of art. The Roman Catholic Church influenced a movement to spread Protestantism. The way that protestantism is simple in most countries like the Netherlands and Germany explains how the architectural designs and styles in many areas.
The image of Jesus in religion was used to portray in Christianity. As the church was in seek of art that was extremely clear, persuasive, inspiring, and powerful, in the 17th century. The image of Jesus was affected. The image of him was changed to be dramatic, intense, psychologically and emotionally powerful. The art was made to be obvious to the viewer, so they could have a clear understanding of the Christian church.
In this artwork Jesus is being taken off the cross. The dark colours represent his death, but the white cloth depicts his purity, goodness and light. In this image Jesus is shown after his death on the cross, but in this it shows that he was strong enough to give his life for us, making us pure again and cleansing our sins.
