Question

The ____ of Borromini's architecture, visible in the facade of San Carlo, opposed traditional ideas about architecture.

Answer 1

The undulation motion and enhanced three-dimensional effect of Borromini's architecture, visible in the facade of San Carlo, opposed traditional ideas about architecture.

Explanation:

The Italian engineer Francesco Borromini (1599-1667) was the most brave and unique modeler of the Roman Baroque, and his style is the epitome of elaborate luxury. It normally incorporates bending structures including oval shapes and a mix of sunken and raised structures that make dividers appears to undulate or seem wavy with a solid feeling of movement.

His works were compelling all through Europe and South America. He was indirectly identified with the extraordinary designer Carlo Maderno. This notorious Baroque competition finished with the passing of Borromini in 1667. Shockingly, the craftsman ended it all by falling on his own sword.
