Which of this grand/sophisticated European art aesthetics do you like the best?

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Based a setting I'm making for a story, I'm getting more attached to Europe's grand art style trying to take inspiration from them. Usually they're done in cathedrals or palaces but usually more elaborate in churches/cathedrals. Fascinated by how they started out as just castles then suddenly became that sophisticated.

There's more like Georgian, Classical, Renaissance, Byzantine, Medieval, Rococo and more, but I can only add 7 of them.

Personally, i'm a fan or Romanesque, Gothic and Victorian for different reasons. Romanesque for it's simplicity and I really appreciate the stone texture arches, victorian just looks cozy and Gothic for the colors despite the dark atmosphere.

The second option is really gorgeous but overwhelming at the same time. Neo classic is beautiful but way too 'flat' for my preference. Baroque is so pretty too.

I really love rest of them but if I have to choose I'll go with Gothic architecture.

Love Moorish too, it looks Christmasy because of the white red strips.

But it all comes down to your story and what vibe it gives.

Of those styles, Romanesque is my favorite and Rococco is my least favorite.

isn't Churrigueresque part of Baroque?

[Aiko_E_Lara]

yes also looking distinct. Ironically, rococo is not baroque but also looks thesame
