The painting beneath the painting
Pentimento is Italian for "repentance." In art, it means the trace of an earlier painting that shows through the surface: the figure the artist painted over, the composition they abandoned, the correction that reveals the doubt behind the masterpiece.
Over time, or under X-ray and infrared, these hidden layers become visible.
Il Pentimento. The art that bled back through.
Part of a family alongside Lorics (music) and The Emotion Pictures (film).
