Advancing HeRitage science procedures for Depth-resolved condition risk assessment of wall paintings
Although heritage science field already offers a wide range of tools for condition assessment of wall paintings, an efficient on-site full-field depth-resolved inspection is not achieved yet. In practice, heritage professionals often struggle to interpret complex and fragmentary scientific data. Conservators often face challenges in assessing hidden risks and localizing the depth of detected detachments, covered fresco layers, refills, and cracks. The main challenge in wall painting’s condition assessment is that it is inextricably linked to the architectural/archaeological support. The preservation of the pictorial layer, often unique and irreplaceable as in ancient frescoes, depends on…
