Cenninos Apprentice: Renaissance notes Archives: Mar 13, 6:23pm 1 review art-history
http://www.mediatinker.com/cennino/renaissance_notes/; Man afterward pursued many useful occupations, differing from each other; and some were, and are, more theoretical than others; they could not all be alike, since theory is the most worthy. Close to that, man pursued some related to the one which calls for a basis of that, coupled with skill of hand: and this is an occupation known as painting, which calls for imagination, and skill of hand, in order to discover things not seen, hiding themselves under the shadow of natural objects, and to fix them with the hand, presenting to plain sight what does not actually exist. And it justly deserves to be enthroned next to theory, and to be crowned with poetry. The justice lies in this: that the poet, with his theory, though he have but one, it makes him worthy, is free to compose and bind together, or not, as he pleases, according to his inclination. In the same way, the painter is given freedom to compose a figure, standing, seated, half-man, half-horse, as he pleases, according to his imagination. { Cennino D'Andrea Cennini }
CENNINO'S APPRENTICE
Lessons with a Renaissance master
"In the 14th century, an Italian painter named Cennino Cennini wrote Libro dell'Arte, a text on the techniques of painting. I'm going try to teach myself these methods and document them as I go along."
