Abstract: | The mural is impaired by damages caused by salt efflorescence. The paint layer is also completely covered with a sinter layer. Furthermore, the plaster as well as the paint layer show extreme deformations. The plaster has delaminated and several local separations have formed. The emphasis of the conservation treatment was the development and execution of a temporary emergency protection for the most endangered areas. Methods to consolidate the plaster layer are discussed. For a large volume separation, a lightweight filling mortar was developed (using expanding glass granulate). |
