LOOK AT THAT SMALL LITTLE BRUSH! what an interesting technique from the man who represented a serious point towards the development of renaissance art.
This was amazing to watch! I wish they shared resources like this in my old art history classes. Watching this made me want to experiment with these older techniques
I've done my share of oil painting when I was young, then crossed to the computer world as a graphic designer, now that I'm retired taking on watercolor painting, I've seen almost every method of painting, classical, modern and digital, but this is totally fascinating!. Artistry meant something different back then, suffice to say I will have to take a shot at this, Master's work to say the least, thank you so much for the video!
Thank you. That was awesome. It reminded me of how many years ago I toiled so hard at the preparation stage of the plaster base (I believe 15 layers of plaster and polishing down each layer after it had dried to get a perfectly homogeneous base). That was the most difficult part of iconography. The postman had dropped by once and got the fright of his life when he saw me covered in white powder from head to toe!
Giotto is one of my inspiration since when i was 14. His art really makes me to feel like I'm one step closer to the Heaven. Thats how good his art is!
The painstakingly ordered steps make it quite clear why so very few practitioners are presently doing this sort of work today. Though I've ever loved Giottos' panels for their stunningly rich colors and precise use of line, the investments in its material's alone would be mind numbing. For personal display I would gladly attempt this, but for resale to ignorant patron's one's efforts would not be financially compensated. Such a lovely work could never be given away for my pouring my soul into it thus.
Beautiful. Beginning art study touches on Giotto and contemporaries. Chiaroscuro and perception, and something that never really occurred to me before, the creation of something that tells the viewer that the edges of the painting stop what actually is meant to continue.
What painters and craftsmen they were in the fourteenth century. Thank you for sharing with us and bringing back memories Of studying in Firenze many many years ago
It Is Byzantine / eastern Roman Icon technique which was westernized in a way to fit the theology and dogma of the catholic church, after the seize of Constantinople artists moved in Italy and especially in Venice and Florence. Beautiful video
L'approfondita ricerca è il frutto di un intenso lavoro di collaborazione fra i colleghi dello studio di restauro da me diretto ed uno stimato Storico dell'Arte, avvenuto anni fa, in occasione della realizzazione del Progetto ARTIS. Grazie per il gradito commento!
Brilliant work... Just wish we could see the completed piece in full... The ending cropped the painting so I could see much I bet it was beautiful though. I might give that a try . Thank you for educating us so well. 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
The shooting dates back to 20 years ago and among the material preserved there was not the total of the finished painting. Thanks for the nice comment!
Giotto came from the iconography tradition that is still alive in contemporary Eastern Orthodoxy. His contribution to The Renaissance was his introduction of a certain naturalism to his human figures. For those interested in learning this technique, try sourcing for contemporary iconographers. Many of them teach workshops.
Wow, that's a lot of work! You would have to have a steady hand. Painting was in my bucket list. I took a couple of classes on different media's but oil is my favorite. I love landscapes, it's fast and if you screw up, paint a bush. Of course I am a beginner .
Cenino Cenini's book is really a treasure. But, i don't think that i really wana be there. it's not a painting workshop, it literally small factory with some workers (some of them kids) who stretch and grind, mix or scrap, bring this, take that, always cooking something, straining something, and so on and on and on all day, every day... very hard work of managing and painting, make us appriciate the old masters even more. for me? let me buy it in a store or internet site and just sit and paint. love you ARTEnet.
Technique & knowledge 10/10 Realism 5..i guess?/10 Couldn't have said better than whoever thought it looks like some high school level realism with more budget Thanks for the video tho
The fourteenth century paintings were varnished with the liquid extracted from egg white even if this varnish proved to be not very stable. Sandarac was used less frequently and it too forms a hard, brittle film with a tendency to darken.
Fascinating watch those processes. Thank-you. What is used in place of lead these days for such traditional artists? Or do they just go ahead and use lead with precaution?
Titanium white and zinc white were used which, when mixed, have a degree of transparency similar to lead white. The appearance is not the same and the consistency of the dough is different but the technique is not distorted. Different the case of oil painting. Thanks for your question
They still use all of the traditional pigments! - cinnabar is actually mercury sulfide... When mixed with liquid it can no longer get airborne and be inhaled (so is safe-ish), but you still have to handle it in powder form in the first place... 🥴
I've learned some of the technique and it is very involved. The best videos such as these can do is introduce the technique. The technique takes years to learn and master.
Sorry, but I can’t help but wonder what the masters would think of today’s digital art. Would they marvel and revel in the creative possibilities, or scoff in contempt? What say you?
I think that for a true artist every new means of expression is an irresistible challenge that cannot be ignored; in particular if, as for digital art, the potential of the new technique is so evident. I believe that the Masters would revel in seeking a renewal of the Art in this, but without forgetting the achievements of the past, Caravaggio among them 😃 ua-cam.com/video/2VplVtxsjkk/v-deo.html

I always admire the craftsmanship of manually putting a work together from start to finish. The artistry starts even before the first line is drawn.
It was really labor intensive to paint back then! I have been painting for years and we have it easy!!
this gives me a lot more knowledge about painting than I did before, I would like to know more about how the old artists painted.
I am really very happy to know that these short videos can give rise to a desire like yours.
Thanks Daniel!
Which old masters? haha, there are many and their techniques vary
@@anthonylopez9594 Calmly, one at a time, those with the most interesting and innovative technique
Mostly they took their secrets to the grave with them. Competition was fierce among the various gilds. Imagine Freemasons with eggs.
One of the most interesting and satisfying art videos I've ever watched.
Fantastic, informative video! I appreciate the English subtitles and cc.
LOOK AT THAT SMALL LITTLE BRUSH! what an interesting technique from the man who represented a serious point towards the development of renaissance art.
The best video about it in many years surfing on UA-cam for real and precise knowledge of it!!!! Thanks a million!!!
Fascinating that the flesh tones start as green. Beautiful lesson thank you!
A beautiful painting. The old techniques are fascinating, and thank you for the English as well.
Beautiful Icon of Saint Mary 🙏
Fascinating! Thank you.

That shade of blue is just...wow
One of my very favorite blues. There's a whole church of it, or at least there used to be.

It could well be. Sadly, I don't remember for sure. I only saw pictures of a few of the paintings/frescoes, more than 25 years ago.

Finalmente un Cennino Cennini visualizzato "ad arte". Complimenti per l'approfondita ricerca sulla tecnica e per l'ottima realizzazione video.
L'approfondita ricerca è il frutto di un intenso lavoro di collaborazione fra i colleghi dello studio di restauro da me diretto ed uno stimato Storico dell'Arte, avvenuto anni fa, in occasione della realizzazione del Progetto ARTIS.
Grazie per il gradito commento!

And it is to be varnished with sandarakka in oil? Much appreciated is this film from you master!
The fourteenth century paintings were varnished with the liquid extracted from egg white even if this varnish proved to be not very stable. Sandarac was used less frequently and it too forms a hard, brittle film with a tendency to darken.
I am lucky enough to possess a copy - translated - of Cenninos book.
Beautiful lll
EXCELENTE!!!!

I have always loved this genre. Great video
When doing a video like this go into details not just general information, show how everything is done, mixed and applied.
I've learned some of the technique and it is very involved. The best videos such as these can do is introduce the technique. The technique takes years to learn and master.
I’m searching where to learn the technique in Mexico, because I would love to learn it!
What you say pleases me but I don't know how to help you.
