Oil Painting: Rolling vs. Hard Edges with Helen Van Wyk

With the advent of the 17th century, the art of painting underwent a remarkable transformation. Previously confined to flat, two-dimensional representations, paintings began to exhibit a newfound depth and realism. Figures seemed to leap off the canvas, creating the illusion of space beyond the frame. This revolutionary change was attributed to the discovery of the "lost line" by 17th-century painters. By skillfully blending sharp, defined edges with soft, blurred ones, these artists achieved a harmonious balance that added significant dimension to their works. This technique not only enhanced the vividness of the scenes but also made them more lifelike and dynamic. Helen cleverly uses the term "Founder" as a play on the word "found." Although the words have distinct meanings, in this context, "founder" aptly describes the 17th-century painters as both the discoverers and creators of the lost line technique. This innovative approach marked a pivotal moment in the history of art, forever changing how scenes were depicted and perceived.
