Create Your Own Sinopia II

A brief explanation of the sinopia technique and analysis of the sinopias conserved in the museum serve as an introduction to the practical activity. This workshop teaches children how to recreate a sinopia using the arriccio technique, which is to say application of the very first layer of plaster, after which, using the pouncing technique, the sinopia will come to life in its characteristic red colour. Secondary school, 11 to 14 years old. Duration: two two-hour meetings.
