The characteristic and the style:
Expressive.

The figure in the first plane , monumental and plastics.
The look of an unreal beauty , rare made with an inclination studied of the heads and the gestures.
The stile is approached at miniatures: clear, rich by colors, brilliants, funds in decorations in golden cream over the arms, jewelry and the cloths.
The refining , decorative exuberance .
Loved and other times criticized:
His art in tumultuous artistic innovations, with the time he comes surrounded of general approbations.
His notoriety is coming the more of caprices by fortune that to merit.
He has a great capacity of interpretation for the exigence by his owners.
The renaissance is represented by the great masters in arts , painting, sculpture and decorations.
The brush passed of hand in hand , the stile to enriches , he becomes complex , the color explodes and the expressivity remains noted.
Into the creations remains the enigmatic smiles, beauty unreal, studied gestures, refinement and the exuberance artistic.
