Recolonization dynamics of lichens after biocidal treatments: A limitation in the spreading of water-based solutions beneath thalli as species-specific influencing factor
Lichen monitoring on heritage marble surfaces of Savoy Residences (UNESCO, NW Italy). • Immediate recolonisation after conservation interventions evaluated by lichenometry. • Spread and penetration of water-based solutions beneath lichens visualized by dyes. • Hydrophobic rock volumes inaccessible by biocides beneath thalli of certain species. • Non-devitalized remnants restarting colonization and limiting conservation efficacy. Recolonisation by…
Non-invasive study of Early Medieval wall paintings in the churches of St. Stephan in Chur and St. Martin in Disentis (Switzerland)
The Early Medieval wall paintings preserved in historical sites of the ancient Raetia Curiensis region (today's Swiss Canton of Grisons and parts of Northern Italy and Austria) provide a rare testimony of the art of this period. This contribution presents the results of the non-invasive scientific campaigns carried out in the churches of St. Stephan in Chur and St. Martin in Disentis/Mustér (Canton of Grisons, Switzerland). In the church of St. S…
Mortars and plasters-how to manage mortars and plasters conservation
The use of mortars and plasters has been widespread in many cultures for thousands of years and these materials are found in the vast majority of built cultural heritage. They play a crucial role in the preservation of immovable heritage and must be taken into great consideration when conserving historical buildings. Plasters and mortars have been extensively studied from a chemical and mineralogical point of view. The main causes and mechanisms …
Lime-based injection grouts with reduced water content: An assessment of the effects of the water-reducing agents ovalbumin and ethanol on the mineralogical evolution and properties of grouts
Technical study of Germolles’ wall paintings: The inputof imaging technique
The Château de Germolles is one of the rare palace in France dating from the 14 th century. The noble floor is decorated with wall paintings that are a unique example of courtly love spirit that infused the princely courts of the time. After being concealed sometime in the 19 th century, the paintings were rediscovered and uncovered in the middle of the 20 th century and partly restored at the end of the 1990s. No scientific documentation accompa…
