| Abstract: | This work describes the conservation and restoration of a panel painting which has been changed dramatically by water and dampness. After the introductory information regarding the origin of the painting, several types of damage and alteration are documented. Over time the influence of water and dampness caused deformation of the panel and created cracks between the planks. Aging joint edges resulted in the need for special construction and specific re‐joining methods. After examining the technology, discussions about restoration techniques follow. The main objectives of the conservation and restoration were the extensive consolidation of the paint layers, the final retouching of the numerous areas of missing and convert paint. The aim was to present the aesthetic and artistic values of the painting as a whole. During the treatment various restoration phases were realized and documented. |
