Corpus of Baroque Ceiling Painting in Germany

Ceiling and wall paintings were among the most iconic design elements of baroque interiors. Between 1550 and 1800, castles, churches, ballrooms and libraries were graced with astonishingly diverse and innovative surface paintings. The project studies the 4,000 or so preserved and restorable paintings that have survived in present-day Germany. Innovative digital techniques are used to make the findings available in an online database.
