VIEW IT AS THE ARTIST DID
Augusto Oppo would narrow his eyes both while painting and when looking at a finished work, softening detail to bring out form, light, contrast and the rhythm of the composition.
This experience digitally interprets that gesture. It does not reconstruct exactly what he saw, but invites us to imagine how the work might have appeared to his gaze.
