by Pietro Luggo,

and revived by him and Andrea Feltrini, who covered the fronts of buildings with an intonaco of black plaster, which, while in a fresh condition, was covered with a white stucco, to which cartoons were transferred, and then the outline was hatched over with a

graving-iron so as to expose the coating

of black underneath.
