Palette Botticelli
Botticelli is the Florentine artist who contributed the most to the Renaissance’s growth in the early decades of the fifteenth century. All his activity took place in Tuscany’s capital city, in the shadow of the Medici family, and in the neoplatonic climate that characterized the culture of Florence, a mature and rich city well aware of its superiority.
The choice of colors shows a preference for strong colors, such as Medici green, Porcelain yellow, Venus yellow or Renaissance blue.
Palette Canaletto
Canaletto adds a breadth of vision to his century’s painting, a totality of vision and absolute control of space. A great sensitivity for light and shadow that make the surfaces of Venice’s 18th-century buildings, bell-towers and churches vibrate.
Canaletto established the rules for the effects of chiaroscuro and for perspective set in such a way that the light falls on the cracked surfaces of the plaster or on the pink cracks of the bricks, creating a series of evocative and picturesque effects.
Palette Michelangelo
Michelangelo Buonarroti is one of the most important exponents of the Italian Renaissance. A multifaceted artist, he was mainly distinguished in sculptural art. In his works he uses the technique of unfinished, where the block of marble is still present in some parts of the finished work to highlight the beauty of the figures realized.
The characters represented in his works create a completely new concept of dynamism. The movement, the chromatic choice and the careful study of light-shadow, have made him one of the most renowned and appreciated artists of all times.
Palette Modigliani
Amedeo Modigliani is one of Italy’s most important artists of the twentieth century. A painter and sculptor, Modigliani is considered the icon of the romantic and cursed artist: handsome, brilliant, poor and passionate; big-hearted but with a fragile body.
Modigliani’s portraits are striking for their ability to capture the essence of his subjects with a few simple strokes, enriching them with timeless elegance. Its palette is composed of a few basic colors: Capri yellow, Jeanne red, Dark Provence purple, Elvira white, diluted with mastery with flax oil, in order to accelerate the drying time and expertly mixed with each other to obtain the characteristic traits and nuances of his style.
