BAROQUE PEARLS… Tulips
The Baroque is often thought of as a period of artistic style that used motion and clear, easily interpreted detail to produce drama, tension, exuberance, and grandeur in sculpture, painting, architecture, literature, dance, theatre, and music.
The style began around 1600 in Rome, Italy, and spread to most of Europe.
The word "Baroque", like most periodic or stylistic designations, was invented by later critics rather than practitioners of the arts in the 17th and early 18th centuries. It is a French transliteration of the Portuguese phrase "pérola barroca", which means "irregular pearl", and natural pearls that deviate from the usual, regular forms so they do not have an axis of rotation are known as "baroque pearls".
Baroque style featured "exaggerated lighting, intense emotions, release from restraint, and even a kind of artistic sensationalism".
