Baroque style (from a French word meaning “irregularly shaped”) is a highly extravagant style that appeared in Italy in the early 17th century and later spread all across Europe. Its main characteristics are mannered lines, curves, high stairways, domes, mirrors, and a rich amount of detail. Originally introduced by the Catholic Church, Baroque architecture was meant to surprise and awe, contrary to the simplicity of the Reformation and the Protestant styles.

Assumption of the Virgin Mary by Egid Quirin Asam, 1723, Rohr (Bavaria). Church of the Abbey of the Augustinian Canons.
