Contained within this volume is a detailed treatise on fresco painting, compiled from lectures given at the Society of British Artists between 1838 and 1840. Fresco refers to a technique of painting murals on newly wet lime plaster. With a history dating back to 30,000 BC, the mural is one of the most ancient art forms on the planet. The word refers to any piece of painted artwork on a ceiling, wall, or other permanent surface. Often, the physical features of the surface or architectural structure are used and incorporated into the artwork itself. This illustrated volume explores the fascinating history and evolution of mural and fresco painting, offering useful and practical information on producing them, materials, viable surfaces, and much more. Contents include: "On the Rise and Progress of Art Among the Greeks, and the Introduction of Fresco and Encaustic Painting", "On the Rise and Progress of Art Among the Italians, and of Fresco Painting in Particular", "On Fresco for Mural Decoration", "On Encaustic and Mural Decoration", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
