Retables on the Croatian Island Lopud

129 The painting „Death of St Joseph“ sol A (70/30) was used to get an even gloss. The higher evaporation rate of this solvent mixture enabled a fast film formation and a relatively even gloss was achieved on the whole surface. The amount of varnish applied depended on the requirements of the particular colour section. After varnishing and final retouching, the painting was mounted in its decorative frame.
