- Synopsis
- This page shows the image of a Baroque design loosely based on a sprig of acanthus leaves. It is shown as purple on a light pink background. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The Baroque style of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries with bold, curving forms and elaborate ornamentation originated in Rome and was encouraged by the Catholic Church. This image shows a stem starting on the bottom left quarter of the page curling up and right then left and down to the top centre of the page. Curving off from this main stem to the left and right are leaves and tendrils. Many designs for fabrics and wallpaper have used elements like this, mirrored and repeated to create patterns. Baroque styles remain popular to this day.
