Stylistic Characteristics of Giovanni Lorenzo Bernini

Baroque artwork is distinguished by eminent drama, ample color, and acute light and gloomy shades. As contrary to High Renaissance artwork, which generally depicted the instant prior to an event happened, Baroque creative persons opted the most spectacular period, the instant when the activity was happening: Michelangelo Buonarroti, working in the High Renaissance, depicts his David carved and even prior to his fight against behemoth; Baroque David of Bernini is fascinated in the manner of throwing the stone at the goliath. Baroque artwork was entailed to arouse emotion and love rather than the serene prudence that had been appreciated during the period of High Renaissance.

The time period of Baroque artwork was the era of the Scientific Insurgency and Era of Authoritarianism. Therefore, numerous artworks that are scientific disciplines or pictures of Louis the Great etc. will most expected be art work of Baroque.

One distinguished feature of this art is chiaroscuro and tenebrism - or spectacular lightings and shadows, so if a sculpture appears like there's limelight it's most probably Baroque. Another feature of this artwork (particularly in carving, such as David by Giovanni Lorenzo Bernini) is motion. Numerous distorting bodies, and not contained postures such as those of the High Renaissance. Emotion is another feature of Baroque art. High Renaissance artwork is truly romanticized and contained, whereas baroque artwork is enriched with drama and emotions. Last but not the least; large facades are another distinguished feature of Baroque artwork.

When you equate David by Bernini with David by Michelangelo, it gets illustrated why the artwork is of Baroque era. Among the fundamental characteristics of carving that's rife David's sculpture is his characterization of the aspect in the accurate instant at which David is bending smartly, as he is in the movement to throw the stone.
