Private Walking Tour of Baroque Rome During the 17th & 18th centuries Rome was the throbbing heart of European art life, achieving such an importance as an artistic crossroad that it more than rivaled the level Paris reached at the end of the 19th century. The protagonists of the Baroque movement in Rome, Bernini & Borromini, will be discussed throughout the tour that incorporates some of their finest works. Visit a small church where you'll see a fine example of the pyrotechnic display Baroque artists could perform, to continue to get acquainted with two different genial interpretations of this style given in S. Carlino by Borromini and in S. Andrea by Bernini. Then, visit "Il Gesu", the first Baroque church erected in Rome which features the most representative frescoed vault of this period. After having enjoyed the aerial solution Borromini gave to his dome in S. Ivo, we'll end at S. Andrea della Valle which will present to us a more courtly version of the Baroque style. Travel warning! If you are looking for educative tours that give you reliable historical information, be aware of the many "pseudo guides" that offer tours on the internet of Rome. They might be funny, but the information given are, to say the least, void of substance! |
