escenografia barroca

En este juego de apariencias  jugó un papel muy importante la pintura al fresco, que consiguió eliminar las paredes y techos, reconvirtiéndolos en  arquitecturas increíbles que crean espacios infinitos poblados de ángeles, santos o la propia divinidad.

 

Pozzo. Decoración (ilusionista) de los techos de la iglesia jesuita en Viena

En el caso de España fue especialmente importante esta decoración fingida, pues la crisis que sufría el imperio durante el siglo XVII impedía utilizar materiales costosos. No es extraño que en vez de mármoles o bronces se utilizaran pan de oro (finísimas láminas de oro sobre la madera) para los retablos o inclusocúpulas falsas (llamadas encamonadas) que en vez de la cara piedra utilizaban yeso y maderas.

Aunque parezca mentira toda la cúpula está realizada con yeso y maderas ligeras. Iglesia de San Isidro, Madrid, realizada por el padre Bautista

Otro importante lugar de teatralidad será la arquitectura efímera(hecha con madera o cartón piedra) para las entradas, bautizos, bodas o funerales de los reyes.

Original Image	Style	Description
		A delicate layered painting of the Capitolio building in Cuba. This will be quick to complete. Simulation: black and white pencils on coloured chalks.
		A colourful depiction of Times Square in New York. This will take me only a few minutes to complete. Simulation: bright, slapdash mixed acrylics.
		A wacky re-interpretation of Vermeer's classic. This can take me up to 10 minutes to complete. Simulation: bright, poorly mixed acrylics.
		A quick sketch of the Swiss Re building in London (otherwise known as the Gherkin). For a better version, please see my City Series gallery. This sketch might take me around 10 minutes to complete. Simulation: graphite pencil with shading.
		A portrait of my old friend Glen. This might take me as long as an hour to complete. Simulation: coloured pencils with hatching.
		A portrait of John Cass, from Imperial College. This is just a very quick sketch of John, and should only take me a few minutes to complete. Simulation: coloured pencils, outlines only.
		A pleasing painting of Madrid rooftops, which appeared in the Metro newspaper. This painting can take up to an hour for me to finish. Simulation: acrylic paints.
		A quick portrait of Paul O'Grady. Not brilliant, but not a bad likeness. This should take me about five minutes to finish. Simulation: charcoal and chalk.
		Another portrait of Paul O'Grady, to show the differences in the various styles I use. This one takes about 10 minutes to complete. Simulation: coloured pencils with hatching.
		A quick sketch of the Pearl Tower in Shanghai, which should be done in minutes. There's a bigger and better version in my City Series gallery. Simulation: pencil outline sketch.
