Baptism of Christ closeup Perugino diameter 6 cm retouch Bottega Tifernate. This tondo belongs to the Linea Aurea by Bottega Tifernate and represents a detail of Perugino's fresco ''Baptism of Christ''. It measures 6 cm in diameter and is perfect as a high-quality gift or wedding favor. Each piece is an exclusive work of art, made and finished by hand with a gold leaf retouch by qualified painters with academic training.
The technique:The Aurea line by Bottega Tifernate stands out for its high-quality artistic works created through the patented technique of pictography, created by master Stefano Lazzari. This method allows the creation of reproductions that maintain all the aesthetic qualities of an authentic painting. Years of dedicated research and study in the field of painting and restoration have enabled the Città di Castello workshop to faithfully restore the methods and recipes that the Renaissance masters applied in their creations on fresco, panel and canvas. For the frescoes, the same type of lime used by Giotto is used, a pure lime, free of salts and alkalis that could damage the work over time. The technique used is the "fresco" one with gold leaf retouching, which allows the colors to blend perfectly with the lime pigment during drying, thus ensuring a long-lasting and harmonious integration. The pigments used are oxide-based, which ensures that the intensity of the color remains unchanged over time.
The work:The detail depicted shows the act of the baptism of Jesus, on whose head St. John the Baptist pours the water of the Jordan. Christ's face is serene and with sweet and humble features. The painting comes with a certificate of origin. A metal hook on the back makes the work suitable as a decorative wall element.
