Description

The Visitation painting by the artist Jacques Daret is a masterpiece of the International Gothic style characterized by its delicacy and softness in the representation of the characters. The composition of the work is very interesting since it is a biblical scene that represents the meeting between the Virgin Mary and her cousin Elizabeth, who embrace each other tenderly in an atmosphere of peace and tranquility.

The coloring of the work is very striking, since it uses pastel tones that give it an atmosphere of serenity and harmony. The use of light is also very interesting, since Daret manages to create a chiaroscuro effect that gives depth and realism to the work.

The history of the painting is very interesting, since it is a work that was commissioned by the family of the Dukes of Burgundy, who were great patrons of art at the time. The work was made in the fifteenth century and is currently in the Louvre Museum in Paris.

One of the lesser known aspects of the painting is that Daret used a very innovative technique for the time, which consisted of applying very thin and transparent layers of paint, which allowed him to create a very characteristic effect of light and transparency. of his style.

In summary, the painting Visitation by Jacques Daret is a masterpiece of international Gothic that stands out for its delicacy, softness and harmony in the representation of the biblical scene. Its composition, color and innovative technique make this work a unique piece in the history of art.
