Baroque fashions were as extravagant as the relationship between the religious and political upheavals during the 17th Century as well as the art and architecture. There were many religious paintings during this time period, however, through the use of specific colors you can definitely feel the mood of this era. The first image is called the "Death of the Virgin," by Carvaggio in 1606 that is now at the Louvre in Paris and the second image is of Marchesa Brigida Spinola Doria by Peter Paul Rubens, 1606.These images were adopted from: http://www.wga.hu/frames-e.html?/html/c/caravagg/07/index.html and http://www.marquise.de/en/1600/pics/index.shtml.
