Abstract: | The privately owned tempera painting “In der Werkstätte” (1993) by Fritz Panzer shows severe delamination. Large scales of the thick paint layer are detaching from the ground. The delamination is connected to the formation of zinc soaps in the lower part of the underpainting, as well as the low amount of binding medium in the paint. Based on scientific analyses, the materials and the condition are examined and a concept for the conservation and restoration is developed. The main attention is given to finding a method to conserve the sensitive matt paint layer. The practical work focuses on the consolidation and returning the artwork to a presentable condition. |
