Paolo Uccello, "San Romano", 1450, Uffizi, Firenze

Speranza



Paolo Uccello was chiefly preoccupied with perspective. Indeed, perspective became for him a true obsession.

His battle scenes gave him an opportunity to play with volumes and foreshortened views with dazzling skill.

The colours, boldly juxtaposed, reinforce an impression of unreality.
