Abstract (en)
Observes that a principal aim of Baroque art was to astonish, not in a superficial sense but in order to arouse the public and open it to experience. Examines the public response to Spanish Baroque art, including religious painting (Orrente school, Landscape with Flock of Sheep and a Well, in the Gil collection, in which figures embracing in the middle ground are identifiable as Jacob and Laban), ephemeral decorations (catafalque of queen María Amalia in the cathedral of Barcelona, 1761), spectacles (chasse du roi), and still life. Concludes that the Baroque was the most popular art, and the most intensely experienced by the public.
