Question

Which of the following techniques, developed by a fellow Renaissance artist, did Raphael use in one of his painting?
a.
sfumato
b.
pyramidal figures
c.
halos

Answer 1

Raphael is known to have utilized **b. pyramidal figures** in his compositions, a technique that was influential among Renaissance artists, including Leonardo da Vinci. Pyramidal composition helps create a sense of stability and harmony within a painting. While sfumato (a technique associated with Leonardo) and halos (often used in religious art) are also significant, the specific mention of pyramidal figures aligns closely with Raphael's style and his integration of techniques from his contemporaries.
