Annotation

How is a painting artwork created? Lectures in the first and second semesters will focus on the circumstances of the creation of selected works of painting in Italian art centres in the 15th and 16th centuries. They will look at the commissioners and their requirements of the artist in the creation of the work, in terms of subject matter, technique and use of support.

Procedures for preparing the work will be described, particularly in the form of sketches, studies and models. Part of the lecture will illuminate the painting procedures involved in the creation of the work.

In this way, works by Masaccio, Filippino Lippi, Mantegna, Giovanni Bellini, Michelangelo, Raffaello, Perino del Vago, Giulio Romano, Parmigianino, Giulio Campi, Marco Pina, Giorgio Vasari, Taddeo Zuccari, Federico Zuccari, etc. will be described.
