The Pinacoteca di Brera ("Brera Art Gallery") is the main public gallery for paintings in Milan, Italy. It contains one of the foremost collections of Italian paintings from the thirteenth to the twentieth century, ...
an outgrowth of the cultural program of the Brera Academy, which shares the site in the Palazzo Brera.
it is ultimately a baroque building, even if many things remind me more of the renaissance ...
es kostete schon eine große Überredungskunst, hier hinein zu kommen ;-) ...

The baroque style was encouraged by the Catholic Church as a means to counter the simplicity and austerity of Protestant architecture, art, and music.
Theatinerkirche, München, Germany.
Design: (1663): Agostino Barelli
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".

Above the grand staircase at Drottningholm.
Drottningholm palace is the home of the king and queen of Sweden - no, they do not actually live in the big palace in the middle of Stockholm, but in this much cosier creation just outside of Stockholm (in the small village of Drottningholm - which was actually built to house servants for the palace).
The name literally means the Queen's islet, and is older than the building itself. It used to refer to a palace built in 1580 for the queen Katarina Jagellonica - but that place burned down in 1661, and the current house is the one that was built to replace it. It was on order from the queen Hedwig Eleonora - at the time queen dowager but also regent for her son Karl (Charles) XI that was underage when his father (Karl X) died. The palace was designed by one of Sweden's most well known architects: Nicodemus Tessin the Elder, and after his death the work was continued on by his (equally famous) son Nicodemus Tessin the Younger. The queen used it as a summer residence, and as a place for hunting. The palace continued to be in fashion throughout the 18th century, and got a partly rococo interior during the time of queen Lovisa Ulrika.
But the place fell out of fashion with the new Bernadotte dynasty in the early 19th century, being to closely connected with the earlier regime. The last new add-ons to the place was electricity and modern plumbing at the beginning of the 20th century - after that the focus has been on conservation and preservation.
The royal family has lived there since 1981 (though the kids have moved out by now).
“There is no need to build a labyrinth when the entire universe is one.”― Jorge Luis Borges, Labyrinths: Selected Stories & Other Writings
The site of the Palace and Gardens of Schönbrunn is outstanding as one of the most impressive and well preserved Baroque ensembles of its kind in Europe. The ample Baroque gardens with their buildings (Gloriette, Roman ruins etc.) and statuary testify to the palace's imperial dimensions and functions.
Happy weekend my friends, thank you very much for faves and kind comments! I appreciate your kindness!!
This is a side chapel in the Baroque cathedral St John's Co-Cathedral in Valletta, Malta.
The church was first built 1573-78, after a design by Girolamo Cassar, born in Malta, but got its current looks in the century after. It was the main church of worship for the knights of St John (who dominated the island in the 17th and 18th centuries).
If you are wondering what a co-cathedral is, that is what you get when you are in a diocese that already has a cathedral (in Mdina), but thinks another church is just as a grand and important (if not more so). So the bishop can use it as an alternative cathedral. This solution dates to 1820s, when the knights had left. Initially the cathedral was called Chiesa Conventuale di San Giovanni Battista (yes, it had an Italian name - in English that is Conventual Church of St. John).

A Baroque-style fiddle my wife borrowed a few years ago while deciding which instrument to buy. This one she hated.
St. Michael's in Hamburg (colloquially the "Michel") is one of the few baroque churches of Northern Europe, and a pretty large one too. Its present shape goes back to the 1750s. Frequent fires and other destructive events, however, forced the rebuilding of the church using new materials including, most recently, steel and concrete. Altar and pulpit, for example, are 20th century replicas of the original item. St. Michael's is a Lutheran cathedral and one of the city's four main churches (Hauptkirchen). Fuji X-Pro1.
Interior, Dom St. Stephan, Passau. The Baroque cathedral dates from 1668, but the altarpiece is obviously 20th Century, and was installed after WWII. It depicts the stoning of St. Stephen. The locals reportedly hated it, but accepted their bishop’s recommendation to keep it.
I met some baroque girls in front of a baroque building in Schlossgarten Schwetzingen. You know I rarely take photographs of people. But if they are historical people in mice baroque clothes, I just can't resist. I asked them, if I may upload the photographs.

Schnitger-Hinsz-orgel, in de Martinikerk
Het hoofdorgel behoort tot de bekendste en met 53 stemmen tot de grootste barokorgels ter wereld.
Het is in 1691-1692 gebouwd door Arp Schnitger, In 1728-1729 werd het orgel verder uitgebreid door Franz Caspar Schnitger, de zoon van Arp Schnitger. Omdat hij stierf werd het werk in 1730 afgemaakt door zijn meesterknecht
In de jaren zeventig werd Jürgen Ahrend uit Leer aangezocht om het orgel zoveel mogelijk terug te brengen in de staat waarin Hinsz en Struiwig het in 1740 hadden gebracht. Enkele waardevolle toevoegingen uit later tijd heeft Ahrend gehandhaafd. De restauratie duurde van 1976 tot 1984.

Schnitger-Hinsz organ,, in the Martinikerk
The main organ belongs to the best known and with 53 votes to the largest baroque organs in the world.
It was built in 1691-1692 by Arp Schnitger, In 1728-1729 the organ was further expanded by Franz Caspar Schnitger, the son of Arp Schnitger. Because he died, the work was completed in 1730 by his master servant
In the seventies, Jürgen Ahrend from Leer was asked to return the organ as much as possible to the state in which Hinsz and Struiwig had brought it in 1740. Ahrend has retained some valuable additions from later times. The restoration lasted from 1976 to 1984.
Borrowed from my wife for a few lockdown shots.
Strictly photography only. She has a modern violin from which I can extract an almost recognisable note. Baroque instruments are a different kettle of pollack altogether. Think fingernails and blackboards.
