The Bottega d'Arte - Medieval Art
Silvia Salvadori was born in 1978 in Sinalunga, in the heart of Tuscany. She's a graduate of the "Duccio di Buoninsegna" Art Institute and holds a degree in Art Preservation from the University of Siena. Living in the city of the Palio, she has established a spiritual and material bond with the surviving art workshops which preserve the pictorial traditions of the best artists of the Tuscan school of the middle ages and the Renaissance.
Silvia Salvadori creates an ideal continuity by reviving through her hands a tradition and knowledge on its way to oblivion. The warm reflections of gold, the brocades of clothes, the ecstatic rapture of the saints, the mystic exchange of glances between the virgin Mary and baby Jesus and the richness of Christian symbolism, all recreated with talent, refinement and dedication, come to life in the works that Silvia Salvadori is able to reproduce using the same artistic "know-how" of the medieval masters. She makes use of poplar and linden panels, dust and leaves of pure gold (in order to make incisions through the use of burins purposefully created by the latest master engravers), and natural pigments mixed with egg yolk, following the instructions given in Cennino Cennini's Book of Art (1370-1440).
Reproduction of Medieval Italian Icons: Cimabue, Duccio di Buoninsegna, Simone Martini, Pietro Lorenzetti, Giotto, Sano di Pietro, Spinello Aretino and Piero della Francesca, Alessandro Botticelli."
