Which of the following best describes some of the most important characteristics of baroque art?
a. detailed, bold
b. dramatic, exuberant, ornate
c. influenced by classical pieces

The correct answer is b. dramatic, exuberant, ornate. Baroque art made use of deep, rich colors, for example browns and reds, and played with light and shadow to dramatize a scene. Baroque paintings were often easy to interpret due to a high level of detail, which would exaggerate a scene even more. The scenes themselves were often of a religious nature, because at the time, the Catholic church endorsed Baroque art to disseminate Catholic ideals and curb the Protestant Reformation that was simultaneously occurring.
