Fresco

"Of all the other ways that painters do, painting on the wall is the most masterful and beautiful."

This is how Giorgio Vasari presents the fresco technique, considered among the most difficult since it does not allow second thoughts.

In Florence, great artists have created beautiful frescoes that can now be admired inside the Florentine churches, palaces and museums: Masaccio, Ghirlandaio, Frà Angelico, Vasari, Giotto and many others. The Fresco is an ancient technique that consists in applying the paint on a layer of fresh plaster, which by drying up merges the color. This way the painting is preserved for a long time as it becomes an integral part of the wall itself. During the course students will learn the technique following the rules dictated by the medieval and Renaissance tradition and will put it into practice through the execution of one or more paintings.

Courses can be started every week and classes are held in the afternoon. Schedules vary for every student and will be communicated on the week before the starting of the course.
