Weisbach, W.

Japanese: Weisbach,W.(英語表記)WeisbachW
Weisbach, W.

...In Italian, it is a noun. On the other hand, according to W. Weisbach and others, the word originally comes from the Portuguese barroco, Spanish barrueco, or berrueco, meaning "an imperfect pearl," and came to be used as an adjective in French in the 18th century as a term in literary and art criticism.
[Changes in concept]
The term "Baroque" was used in 18th-century Italian and French art criticism as a derogatory term for a particular 17th-century artistic style, as is clear from the dictionaries of both countries from that period.
