Some Baroque painters eventually achieved a bit of revenge by devising illusionistic frescoes that appear to demolish nave vaults and domes to reveal the divine occupants of a sunlit heaven sitting on or floating around clouds.
Witness the coexistence of rough planes that incorporate sand and suavely brushed passages, or of raucous invocations of leaves and fruit, and illusionistic wood grain and marble (an echo of his early training as a master decorator, as well as of Cubist collage).
