Rome’s baroque churches are so richly decorated that one often notices the ceiling decorations only as one is leaving the church. During our tour we will see some of the most ingenious examples of baroque illusionism: Giovanni Lanfranco\u2019s Glory of the Angels in S. Andrea della Valle, the ceiling fresco of Baciccia in Il Ges\u00f9, Andrea Pozzo’s fresco in S. Ignazio, and last but not least Giovanni Odazzi\u2019s realistic Fall of the Angels in SS. Apostoli. Anyone who would like to see more illusionistic ceiling decoration should visit the Palazzo Barberini where Pietro da Cortona realized one of the most important ceiling frescoes of the baroque period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7634,"parent":0,"template":"","tours_categories":[124],"class_list":["post-7902","fuhrungen","type-fuhrungen","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tours_categories-baroque"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nThe glory of the baroque: Illusionistic ceiling paintings - Romamirabilia<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.romamirabilia.com\/en\/guided-tours\/themed-guided-tours-of-rome\/baroque\/the-glory-of-the-baroque-illusionistic-ceiling-paintings\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"The glory of the baroque: Illusionistic ceiling paintings - Romamirabilia\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Rome’s baroque churches are so richly decorated that one often notices the ceiling decorations only as one is leaving the church.
