Summary :
Choosing key-works in the imaginary of the Western culture, the series called “Palettes” tells in each episode the story of a different painting. In a word, it tells the genealogy of the painting. For a painting has its ancestors and its descendants. A double technical and philosophical knowledge, fed on by a long tradition, gave birth to the painting. And the painting itself gave birth, year after year, to a multitude of other images…
Assuming the idea that the deep meaning of a painting is conveyed by the choice of colours and themes, we dissect the canvas from its most visible composition to its deepest significance.
It is the most mysterious painting of the whole history of painting. About thirty hypothesises have already tried to find its political meaning without finishing it off."La flagellation", probably painted between 1450 and 1460 by Piello della Francesca, a learned artist who had all his faculties, does not just telle a story that is still enigmatic to us.It is a true manifesto of the new art and thought of the Renaissance.
