panneggio bagnato 46
Sculptural technique of wet cloths that represents the human anatomy insinuated by the folds of thin clothes apparently wet thus creating works of great plasticity as it happens in the Grim Reapers of Phidias of the Parthenon or in the Victory of Samothrace. We can also admire this technique in the Veiled Truth of Antonio Corradini and in the Veiled Christ of Giuseppe Sanmartino, both of the eighteenth century.
