As part of the “Masterpieces at MUŻA” exhibition, our Education and Outreach department is presenting a series of educational clips all tied to interesting aspects of this exhibition such as techniques, art approaches, what it takes to create such an exhibition, etc.
During this clip we see our art educator, Franco Navarro, demonstrating the ‘Silverpoint’ or ‘Metalpoint’ drawing technique which is an old technique mainly used in manuscript illustrations during the Middle Ages. As a technique, it is best represented during the Renaissance period and is considered a lost technique. The latter happened because it was replaced by charcoal and graphite and other more controllable media instead of the traditional silver, lead or tin. Metalpoint is only applied on grounded paper or any other support. The paper needs to be as good as that used for etching or woodcuts. Watch this clip to learn the full technique!
*Disclaimer* This technique involved spirits and pure pigments and it is advisable that individuals with experience only handle such a technique.
