Chicago Manual of Style 15.26:
"When the source of a block quotation is given in parentheses at the end 
of the quotation, the opening parenthesis appears after the final 
punctuation mark of the quoted material. No period either precedes or 
follows the closing parenthesis."

And the example:
If you happen to be fishing, and you get a strike, and whatever it is 
starts off with the preliminaries of a vigorous fight; and by and by, 
looking down over the side through the glassy water, you see a rosy 
golden gleam, the mere specter of a fish, shining below in the clear 
depths; and when you look again a sort of glory of golden light flashes 
and dazzles as it circles nearer beneath and around and under the boat; 
. . . and you land a slim and graceful and impossibly beautiful 
three-foot goldfish, whose fierce and vivid yellow is touched around the 
edges with a violent red—when all these things happen to you, fortunate 
but bewildered fisherman, then you may know you have been fishing in the 
Galapagos Islands and have taken a Golden Grouper. (Pinchot 1930, 123)

Seems to be the same in MLA and APA by the way:
