| Wine worker at rest. Frescoe painting at the Trevizzo Restaurant, Santa Felicidade, Curitiba, Brazil. | |
The older mural painting technique known in the art history, represents to the contemporary painting the same that latin represents to the neolatin languages. Painting with a fine and wet lime-plaster (intonaco), with compatible pigments and water. Frescos from all periods can be seen in Italy and some of them are masterpieces of ocidental art. Some famous works from medieval art, renaissance and baroque are made in fresco painting. Giotto, Masaccio, Fra Angélico, Piero della Francesca, Luca Signorelli, Michelângelo, Raphaello, Pietro de Cartona e Giovanni Tiepolo are some artists that worked in this technique. We find new frescos in the last century in German and England, And, recently in México. In the contemporary art, there are very few fresco painters, due to the work and knowledge that is required. We find just Portinari fresco paintings at Rio de Janeiro and Prata's works in Curitiba, state of Parana, in the south. If you want to learn some secrets of painting, see the Painting Techniques DVD, where Sérgio Prata, former pupil of École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Arts of Paris reveals the secrets of the techniques of art. This painter is actually one of the very feel frescoes painters in Brazil. |
