About This Book

Die Untersuchung präsentiert eine Übersicht der barocken Kirchen und Klöster in Unterfranken, verortet ihre Entwicklung im konfessionellen und künstlerischen Umfeld und verfolgt den Übergang von spätmittelalterlichen und Renaissanceformen zur barocken Raumauffassung. Sie analysiert Fassaden, Kuppel- und Raumprogramme, die Ausbildung einheitlicher Raumwirkungen und charakteristische Elemente wie freistehende Säulenpaare, gekrümmte Gurte und rhythmisierte Kurvenbewegungen. Fallstudien zu Würzburger Bauten, der Schönbornkapelle, Neumünster sowie Arbeiten von Antonio Petrini, Johann Dientzenhofer, Balthasar Neumann und weiteren erläutern Einflüsse aus Italien und Böhmen, Planungsprozesse und die Zusammenarbeit verschiedener Entwerfer.
