What was Giotto's central idea about painting?
My central idea was that painting should reflect the world as we see it, with figures that possess volume and stand in believable space. I observed how bodies move and how emotions manifest on faces and in gestures. By translating these observations onto the wall, I aimed to create an illusion of reality, allowing viewers to connect with the depicted scenes and figures on a human level. It's about making the divine and human dramas feel present and tangible.
