Bacanal con una cuba de vino

Before 1475
Not on view
Andrea Mantegna, reconocido artista del Renacimiento, utilizó la técnica del grabado para crear algunas de sus composiciones más celebradas. Realizados en la década de 1470, Bacanal con una cuba de vino, cuyo estilo evoca un friso, y su pareja, Bacanal con Sileno, se inspiraron en la ornamentación de sarcófagos romanos. En Bacanal con una cuba de vino, Mantegna superpone rayas paralelas en diagonal y en zigzag—con acentos de rayas entrecruzadas—para lograr efectos tonales de gran riqueza, hasta entonces desconocidos en el arte del grabado italiano. Con esta técnica de sombreado, y el experto trazo de los contornos con líneas de variada anchura y profundidad, emula los dibujos de la época hechos con pluma y tinta.
