One story is that one of these specialists was frequently called upon to repaint the horses in the portraits, as favorite mounts passed away and were replaced. How strange, to think of portraits that show young noblemen riding horses that were not even born when their portraits were originally painted!Steven Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02696611705204591030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-83389163134360484492010-07-03T05:50:08.379-04:002010-07-03T05:50:08.379-04:00A similar case is that of "quadraturista"...A similar case is that of "quadraturista" (I think the italian word is used in english, too), the specialist in painting architectural elements and space, mainly in frescoes.

How light passes through fabric and the realistic rendering of different kinds of fabrics, expecially brocade has been a goal of mine. Alphonse Mucha was wonderful at drapery.Mary Bullockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09718356993209078250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-53049611946769366742010-07-02T19:43:46.284-04:002010-07-02T19:43:46.284-04:00This revelatory post has made my head explode.
