Sumario:The aim of this article is to show the complexity of the work of art in the Counter-Reformation period. The text is divided into three sections that analyze the council of Trent (1545-1563), the concept of decorum and the use and function of art in the Baroque. The triumphant and reformed Church of the years following the council of Trent needed art to be able to convey and spread its message of faith. Although after the synod of Trent a Counter-Reformation art was not defined as such, the need to continue counting on the visual support offered by sacred art was reaffirmed. The bishops were in charge of controlling artistic production and ensuring that decorum was respected. These paintings and sculptures made it possible to educate the faithful in the faith, move their spirit by the cathartic power of art, superior to that of literature, and move their minds and actions in accordance with Roman Catholic values.
