...handwoven recreation in the original density of the canvas on which Diego Velazquez painted in the XVII century....
...recreação em densidade original da tela em que Diego Velazquez pintou no século XVII
The original graphic image of the canvas I found in a journal article
published by: The Art Institute of Chicago;
Saint John in the Wilderness: Observations on Technique, Style, and Authorship

To weave the recreation I had to adapt a similar draft in a book @ Handweaving.net.
I used a nice weaving software to do so....
Linen yarn is a kind gift from Safilin
Encontrei o desenho gráfico original num artigo no jornal publicado por :The Art Institute of Chicago;
Saint John in the Wilderness: Observations on Technique, Style, and Authorship, http://www.artic.edu/aic/collections/artwork/6831
Para tecer a recreação tinha que adaptar um desenho semelhante do Handweaving.net.
Usei um software para desenho técnico na tecelagem.
O fio de linho é um presente do Safilin.
