Evaluating the effectiveness of consolidation through laboratory and in situ tests for the conservation of frescoes in hypogean environments of Marsala (Italy)
Compared nanolime, nanosilica, and nano Ba(OH) 2 for fresco consolidation. • Tests on frescoes from Santa Maria della Grotta and Crispia Salvia. • Ba(OH) 2 gave strong consolidation, high breathability, low color change. • Nanosilica reduced vapor flow; nanolime caused whitening, less stability. • Ba(OH) 2 proved most effective for humid, sulphated hypogeal frescoes
Likely Technology Making the Ancient Cham Bricks Lightweight, Carvable, and Durable for Constructing Big Engraved Towers Lasting Thousands of Years
The Po Nagar Towers (Thap Ba) complex, an iconic heritage site of Cham culture and a nationally recognized special relic, has stood in Nhatrang, Vietnam, for over a thousand years. We report here a preliminary analysis of original ancient Cham bricks from the Po Nagar Towers using a combination of appropriate characterization techniques, including X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman micro-spectroscopy, thermal dilatometry, co…
Multi-approach study, digitization and dissemination of a Bronze-Age engraved cup found in Filo Braccio, Filicudi (Aeolian Islands, Italy)
Highlights: A multi-approach methodology was used for a thorough examination of a prehistoric cup decorated with engravings, found at the Bronze Age settlement of Filo Braccio in Filicudi Island (Messina). Photogrammetry and near-infrared (NIR) imaging were combined to create a metrically correct digital replica (with switchable texture); 3D and 2D views were exported to study the vessel’s morphology and decorations. To enrich the visiting experi…
Geochemical and mineralogical characterization on an ochre residue adhering to a pebble found in the Oriente A Epigravettian burial, in the Grotta d'Oriente of Favignana (Egadi, Italy)
The colours of Segesta. Searching for the traces of the lost pigments
Newly discovered orichalcum ingots from Mediterranean sea
How Many Secret Details Could a Systematic Multi-Analytical Study Reveal About the Mysterious Fresco Trionfo della Morte
The “Trionfo della morte” is a detached fresco painting dated at the half of the XV century. Its history is strictly connected with the history of Palermo and it is considered a symbol of the late Gothic period. Some small areas of the fresco were analyzed using a combination of non-invasive techniques and hand-held instrumentations (multispectral imaging analysis, X-ray fluorescence (XRF), and IR spectroscopy). The characterization of the nature…
