    a technique by means of which objectsseem to loom / to get out of darkness.

    CANGIANTE

    a technique that implies choosing a different tone

    brighter or darker whenever the original tone

    cannot be lightened or darkened any more. For

    instance, the painter's hue could pass from yellowinto red (irrespective of the actual colour of the

    object), when he paints the shades on a yellow

    object, just because the yellow in question cannot

    be darkened enough so as to properly render theshadow/s of that particular object.

    UNIONE

    a technique that appeals to vivid, daring hues and

    shiny tints which are nevertheless in harmony /

    perfectly balanced;

    Yet, Raphael avoids sharp contrasts, by makinguse of ultramarine blue softened with some

    whitish grey or making use of some striking red

    against an aquamarine blue background,

    perfectly matching thus the shades and thegolden brilliance of the flesh.
