Fresco: time has no power

Galina Timofeeva Sheveleva-Since his primitive man seeks to beautify your home. Due to it was primarily his warming (for example, the walls hung the skins of animals), and the second, but did not unimportant - our ancestors wanted to splash out emotions through drawing life events, to capture them on stone, leather, fabric later. Later designs were the subject of aesthetics. Hunting scenes, everyday scenes were motifs of rock art. Over time, a primitive charcoal drawing turned into a beautiful piece of art - a mural. The name comes from the Italian expression «al fresco» - «drawing on fresh." Finish murals used in ancient Greece and Rome, Byzantium. Old Russian artists (Rublev, Dionysius) in X-XII centuries. used the technique of painting murals for churches. A special embodiment of the rich and flourishing mural was during the Renaissance (XIV-XVI centuries).. Beautiful, precious "wall plaster" created Raphael, Michelangelo. Paintings made on wet plaster, were surprisingly realistic. Sometimes a visitor and had no idea that does not look out the window, and the picture. Like any phenomenon, the fresco has survived heyday, decline and rebirth. Oddly, the impetus for interest in the murals have given the political developments in Mexico. Artists muralisty (muros - from the Latin wall) protested and called for bright, vivid pictures of the cubic and modernist trends. Currently, interior design murals - a way accessible, ie embodiment of your idea is possible, and only a few days, but once a reservation, my dear. Frescoes adorn not only the accommodation - they fit perfectly into an office space, restaurant or hotel creates an expensive look respectable. Often frescoes adorned the interior of expensive boutiques. Unlike previous eras, in the technique of fresco can be drawn almost any image. There are several techniques of drawing pictures on plaster walls. Murals manufacturers in the world - a sufficient number of (the leaders of Italy, Spain), everyone thinks their products better. Argue with such statements does not make sense, because indeed it is. The only thing needed to solve the consumer - what kind of mural needed it to him and fit to create interiors. Equally important is the price of goods. Fresco flexible. This mural was done on an ad hoc basis of plaster, which is deposited on a flexible sheet. Mural can be neatly rolled up into a roll, put in a tube and store the necessary time or transport. At the heart of the frescoes - reinforcing mesh. When fastening the finished mural on the wall edge of the grid remains visible, but later it is masked by decorative plaster and wall space looks like a coherent whole. The composition of the frescoes is durable, it is not afraid of humidity. Fresco on the basis of self-adhesive. These murals are created using a special paste of very fine sand, which is applied to a particularly strong non-woven self-adhesive base - said sales manager, "ORTHO" Alex Skokov. - In this case, the image is applied to the digital way, and frescoes mount such a pleasure - you just need to remove the protective layer and stick the mural on the wall. In this case, it can be combined with any materials - wallpaper, paint, etc. Murals on the basis of self-adhesive can decorate the walls, ceilings and any other surface. The only negative - a very thin layer of plaster, so the big wall irregularities such fresco can not hide. Before gluing the frescoes on the wall first surface better align. Also, due to a thin layer of plaster effect is lost ancient work and fresco resembles textured wallpaper. The cost of these murals ranging from 9000 to 12000 rubles per m2. The image can be chosen from the catalog. True, the selection of images is not very large. It is also possible to produce a mural on order. Produces such murals, like previous ones, in Italy or Spain. But their cost is much lower - 9000 - 12000 rubles per square meter. Fresco on canvas. For this method, using natural materials: natural paints, strips of linen, glue on the plant or animal-based. Vertical base grout with a mixture of river sand and limestone. Dries a significant part of the time, but these components and natural drying in the sun provide the strength of plaster. While the layer is applied wet mineral paints (white lead, cinnabar, pinkkuler, crowns, ultramarine, etc.). After drying, layers of plaster and paint a mural should be moved to the canvas. Mural shelter cloth, on top put a layer of glue and when it dries, carefully separated from the wall. On tissues obtained a copy, but would like an antique. Then flip strontium tissue murals cover with water resistant adhesive, and glued to the front of the canvas a higher density. After the glue has dried, soaked it with care, and self-image is more dense segments of flax. The finished painting is stretched and fixed on a wall, ceiling, or even framed in a frame as an independent picture. Fresco-print. Original and refined look Italian frescoes «Studio Erre». On a massive foundation applied with a print reproduction of the famous painter Raphael, Caravaggio, Michelangelo and many others, whose most famous works are the world's museum collections - says sales manager of the Italian studio, Yulia Zhukova. - Each reproduction - an exact copy of the original. Prints based on looks exactly like the picture painted plaster-based paints. All murals are hand made master. The finished mural can be used as a picture, placing it in a stylish glass box, and you can incorporate them into any wall. Price depends on the size of the sample starts from 3000 rubles. Fresco on the interlining. The basis here is interlining, which is applied to print the selected image or a specific solution, and then craquelure. It will give the effect of ancient fresco, because forms on the surface of small cracks. Mural mounted on the wall can be a normal non-woven adhesive for wallpaper. Price frescoes on the interlining from 7000 rubles m2. Fresco al secco. This is a mural painted on dry plaster. Here, the walls painted in tempera, ie paints, where the binder is an emulsion of water and egg yolk, as well as from breeding on the water plant or animal glue, mixed with oil (or oil and varnish). If a classic al fresco - a whole with plaster, the al secco exposed cracking and shattering. At present, al secco fresco perform not only on the wall, but simply a rigid foundation. Increasingly used as an independent picture, hanging on the wall. Given the new developments in the paint industry, the longevity of such frescoes is provided, but requires more careful handling. Now use the murals in the classical assignment, but a small sample will be a wonderful unusual gift. Very stylish looks mural, mounted on a wooden easel.
