Question: With no studio space and nowhere really to work in the Accademia, what can a painter do?
Answer: Something else.
But what? After going to the Bilblioteca Ambronesia, yesterday and seeing the cartoon of Raphael's "Scuola di Atene" (School of Athens) and Caravaggio's fruit bowl, which i must add are awesome (in the truest sense of the word), i've been craving drawing and painting, but like is said earlier, there is a problem.
So a solution is what is needed!
Anyone?
p.s
On a side note, the figure of Plato (middle left) is believed to be the image of Da Vinci, and in the final fresco in the vatican, Raphael used his own image and the image of Michelangelo for two of the other figures. Interesting eh? no? ok.
