ABOUT "AFFRESCO"
Any art lover, as well as anyone who has visited Italy, must have had the opportunity to appreciate an affresco painting.
Most prominent ancient Roman paintings consist of affresco, as do the holy stories depicted within medieval churches.
The magnificent decorations found within the halls of villas dating from the fifth, sixth, and seventh centuries also feature affresco paintings.
The affresco painting method is the basis for the most impressive mural works of Italian art and is considered to be the most widely used artistic technique during the Renaissance period by world-known artists such as Botticelli, Michelangelo, Raffaello, Signorelli, and Piero Della Francesca and more.
