Moritz Krehon: THE WROUGHT-IRON ENCLOSURE IN SCHLOSS HOF. Research, concept development and sample conservation Back
Language: Original   -   Translation
Overview:  
 
Abstract: The wrought-iron enclosure in Schloss Hof is an ensemble from the first half of the 18th
century. It was made in the course of the construction of the palace complex of Prince Eugene
of Savoy. It was presumably dismantled at the beginning of the 20th century and disassembled
into individual parts. In addition to a detailed conservatory-restorative survey, the focus of the
present work is on the development of a concept of conservation for the future restoration and
reinstallation of the entire enclosure. The focus is on finding a suitable method for the removal
of corrosion and the rebuilding of the paint. Gentle and at the same time effective blasting
methods will be tested. The developed concept will be practically implemented in a sample
restoration of one element of the object.
