Transcript
00:00 We are exploring Baroque art of everyday objects.
00:07 Now, Baroque is also probably one of the first total works of art,
00:12 where entire rooms, entire houses were sort of designed in the Baroque manner.
00:17 They're dotted all through the exhibition.
00:20 People like Gwendolyn are also impressed.
00:22 Plus, collectors are buying portable artworks.
00:25 So they're buying a lot of this work.
00:29 It may be a little quite small.
00:31 I don't know if you want some Caravaggios off the walls.
00:34 Impossible to get.
00:35 But Caravaggios formed an entire generation of followers.
00:39 And they were all the artists who were in this room.
00:41 So that's why this is possibly the height of the drama, I think, in the whole exhibition.
