Summary

The author examined the state of research on baroque architecture in the Basque Country, and found behaviours of different types in the religious and civil conceptions. She assessed anachronisms and surviving aspects ; chronologically established the arrival of new languages, structures and spatial areas, and the installation of decorative repertoires that are related to the new current. The artist´s capacity to assimilate foreign proposals, the importation of models and personal creations are all discussed. Also, artistic experiences are qualitatively and quantitatively emphasised within the different provinces, conceding importance to dependencies, parallelism and correspondence between them.
