Baroque architecture has greatly influenced later forms of architecture, especially in terms of style and decoration. Firstly, the Baroque style introduced a new concept of space and grandeur, especially in the construction of palaces, churches, and public buildings. This concept of grandeur and drama was later adopted by other styles, such as Rococo and Neoclassical, which also emphasized ornamentation and decoration.
Secondly, the Baroque style also introduced new decorative features such as frescoes, stucco work, and ornate carvings, which became very popular in later forms of architecture. This ornate style was eventually replaced by the more subdued styles like the Neoclassical style, which emphasized simplicity and elegance.
Overall, the influence of Baroque architecture can be seen in various architectural styles throughout history, and its legacy can still be observed in contemporary architecture as well.
