Detail of Jonah - Sistine Chapel, Michelangelo
Image credit: Primalchaos
Buon secco fresco, as illustrated by a detail of Michelangelo's decoration of the Sistine Chapel ceiling (1508-1512), is a challenging painting technique involving the application of watered-down pigment to wet plaster. Painters are forced to work quickly to apply the pigment before the plaster dries.
