Editor: This is an X-radiograph of "Portrait of a Man" by a follower of Jacopo Tintoretto. The film is quite striking in its ghostly revelation. What does this technical view suggest to you? Curator: It uncovers layers of meaning beyond the surface. X-radiography allows us to challenge the very notion of a fixed, singular artistic vision. What can the layers beneath tell us about artistic process and intention, and, importantly, the social and economic factors influencing artistic choices in the Tintoretto circle? Editor: That's a fascinating perspective to consider! Curator: Indeed. This technique invites us to question the artist's own identity and the historical context surrounding the painting's creation.
