The technique of fresco work

This non-multimedial station, prepared by experts from the Istituto Centrale del Restauro (ICR), shows how frescoes were applied according to Giotto’s technique. A sequence of panels illustrates the various phases of work (first coat, or first rendering; drawn outlines; undercoat; application of colour), with examples.
