1. what was a significant influence on the development of baroque architecture? a. french revolution b. counter-reformation c. industrial revolution d. enlightenment

Explanation:

The Counter - Reformation was a significant influence on Baroque architecture. The Catholic Church, during the Counter - Reformation, used Baroque architecture to create grand, emotional, and awe - inspiring religious buildings to reassert its power and attract the faithful. The French Revolution (late 18th century) was after the Baroque period (17th - early 18th century). The Industrial Revolution (late 18th - 19th century) also post - dated Baroque. The Enlightenment (17th - 18th century) emphasized reason and simplicity, which was more in line with Neoclassicism rather than the ornate and dramatic Baroque.

Answer:

B. Counter - Reformation
