Hello @carmary. The Cathedral of Maracay easily stands out from the rest of its surroundings due to its immaculate white color. Plus its elaborate details definitely entice onlookers making it a feast for the eyes. The spacious interiors also speak of a heavenly atmosphere due to its high ceiling and elaborate decorations.
Do you have any idea of the architectural style or character this church is following?
Yes, that height gives a sense of space, of encounter with the sacred or the superior.
The predominant architectural style of this church is baroque, very typical of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, remember that it was built in 1701. In its interior we observe Gothic influences, such as a marble altarpiece in the presbytery.
But its large curved forms, the presence of two domes and its columns with ornaments and sculptures, are unmistakable signs of the baroque influence of the time.
Amazing! Thank you for your superb update on that sacred building's architectural styles. Have fun. 😊
Thank you for reading and commenting very kind of you.
