Baroque Art I: Characteristics of Art and Architecture

Question 3 • FL-0100310-Introduction to Art History

What type of composition would you use to create a Baroque style painting?

Answer
A
diagonal
B
mainly vertical
C
staggered
D
horizontal

Explanation

Baroque paintings often use strong diagonals to create movement, drama, and a sense of energy. A diagonal composition guides the viewer’s eye across the scene, unlike a mainly vertical or horizontal arrangement, which tends to feel more stable. So the best choice is diagonal.
