MURALSThe use of color, design, and thematic treatment can radically alter the sensation of spatial proportions of the building.

*MURAL TECHNIQUES -Encaustic Painting Is in which pigments are mixed with hot, liquid wax. After all of the colors have been applied to the painting surface, a heating element is passed over them until the individual brush or spatula marks fuse into a uniform film.-Tempera Painting Dry pigments are made usable by “tempering” them with a binding and adhesive vehicle. Such painting was distinguished from fresco painting, the colors for which contained no binder.

-Fresco PaintingFresco method of painting water-based pigments on freshly applied plaster, usually on wall surfaces. The colors, which are made by grinding dry-powder pigments in pure water, dry and set with the plaster to become a permanent part of the wall. Fresco painting is ideal for making murals because it lends itself to a monumental style, is durable, and has a matte surface.

-Oil Painting on CanvasPainting in oil colors, a medium consisting of pigments suspended in drying oils.

SCULPTURESSculpture is the branch of the visual arts that operates in three dimensions. It is one of the plastic arts. Durable sculptural processes originally used carving (the removal of material) and modelling (the addition of material, as clay), in stone, metal, ceramics, wood and other materials. Sculpture during the late-15th and early-16th-century gradually assumed a greater individual importance in relation to architecture and painting. Thus architecture actually became more sculpture-like: pilasters were replaced by columns; cornices and moldings were endowed with greater projection, allowing for new patterns of light and shade.

Culture • the ideals of classical humanism were fully implemented in both

painting and sculpture• The key High Renaissance art in Rome included the mastery of oil

painting and sfumato, sculpting, fresco painting, an architecture.• The High Renaissance unfolded against a back-drop of mounting

religious and political tension• To create spiritual figures, your image can't look very real, and if you

want your image to appear real, then you sacrifice some spirituality

CHRISTIANITY is the religion of people during

the High Renaissance.

most important high Renaissance in Rome.

Architecture

The rusticated stone was a popular design that created variation between stories wherein the first floor was roughly entailed while the second floor was smooth.

The Palazzo from the outside had heavy cornices and rusticated stone walls but the inside lay out that made the Palazzo grand was its highly decorated and ornamented courtyard at the center.

The Tuscan order was used because its symbolized the strong male gods therefore making the structure look more powerful.

The Tempietto was the masterpiece of the High Renaissance period because of its harmonious construction of the great ancient roman architecture.

The central plan design was famous by Bramante's floor plan. Classical simplicity of the Pantheon is found apparent in Bramante's designs because he studied Roman temples first hand.

High renaissance churches are decorated by the most famous artists of the 16th-17th century like Raphael and Michelangelo.

The rise of the Palazzo was made during the High Renaissance period. Palazzo's were generally foreboding with its unadorned façade.

The sheer simplicity of the walls and rows of windows emphasized the window variations and pediments. It also emphasizes the walls texture during that time called "Rustification".
