Frescoes

Characteristics

The fresco is a technique used for mural painting.

The pigments are painted on  a freshly lain wall covering of a cement like material before it dries.

The frescoes are made by local artisans as they were in the 14th century, using Giotto's exact technique.The colours are bright and the aesthetics are identical to the original.


The base of the fresco is only slaked lime and sand.

The 12 mm-thick medium protects the colours from deterioration due to possible fluctuations in temperature or excessive ambient humidity.

It is reinforced with a special netting that allows transport and is free of glues or industrial chemicals.


The use of oxide-based colours, deposited "a fresco" in a fresh "fine lime" base and seasoned three years provides unthinkable realism and makes the Fresco seem like it was painted 500 or 2000 years ago.
