painting modes in renaissance
sfumato chiaroscuro unione cangiante
105
*This painting mode blurs the edges of the outlines, creating tonal value. It gives an appearance of a hazy layer on the work, thus lightening bright areas as well as the dark tones. Leonardo da Vinci used this technique on the Monalisa in which he blurred the edges, eliminating the strong techniques. The subtle shading technique is one of the reasons for Monalisa's mysterious smile.
Sfumato
106
*Is similar to sfumato, but unlike the previous mode, the color intensity is not diluted.
It is the use of colors without the severe lines.
This technique uses gradient changes between the color and the light blending on the edges but retains the overall brilliance of the colors. Raphael used this technique on his work St. Catherine of Alexandria.
Unione
107
*Means "light and dark" in Italian. This mode using strong contrast between light and dark. This strong contrast creates a shadows and light that the artist uses to create a focal point. It is like pointing a spotlight on a dark scene. This painting style is heavily used with the succeeding art styles of the Mannerist and the baroque.
Chiaroscuro
108
*Is a painting technique that renders shadows by replacing the color.
*It is used when a painter uses another hue in place of another if the original color cannot be made lighter or darker enough.
