​
THE CHIAROSCURO CHAPARRAL.
​
How the Old Masters were hooked on crags and cliffs!
Just give them a proscenium cave, a ruined arch or grotto, how they prefigured Hollywood with their peaks and bluffs! Death Valley - into the Western rides the bandit Tintoretto, heading for the badlands with his painterly desperadoes, mad to depict quick-draw aristocrats and gangster monks blasting it out forever in last stands for a lost cause, or brawling in a bar room, all of them drunk as skunks. "The Renaissance and the West: Causality and Stereotype" - there's a doctoral thesis in that, even an adjunct professorship. Machiavelli plays the bullying sheriff with his tinpot star, Cinemascope skies are whiplashed with thunderclaps, a Botticelli barmaid and a Bronzino gunslinger escape, the street shoot-out is pure Uccello San Romano war.
