Hi Brian,
Baroque is actually considered an English word. Here is the history, and
definition:
Etymology: French, from Middle French barroque irregularly shaped (of a
pearl), from Portuguese barroco irregularly shaped pearl
Date: 1765
1 : of, relating to, or having the characteristics of a style of artistic
expression prevalent especially in the 17th century that is marked generally
by use of complex forms, bold ornamentation, and the juxtaposition of
contrasting elements often conveying a sense of drama, movement, and tension
Here is another LDRAW building I did that is also Baroque. This one is more
Italian rather than Germanic:
