Chamber of the Eagles (Phaeton). Restoration of the decoration, frescoes, stucco work and oils on the wall decorating the room
2013-2014
Work carried out by restoration company: Marchetti & Fontanini, Toscolano (BS)
Cost: € 11.000,00 - Financing: Municipal Administration
Description of work
The decoration of the room required careful analysis of its state of conservation. In particular the stucco work was in need of specific consolidation. This involved dusting the decorated surfaces, both painted and stucco, cleaning of all the frescoed areas, analysis of the state of conservation of the preparatory layers with correction of any detached areas, filling of small missing parts and application of a watercolour wash over the missing areas of fresco and stucco.
