| description | In the sanctuary of the parish church of St. George in Lovran there is a cycle of wall paintings considered to be made around 1470. The wall paintings were discovered in the middle of the 20th century under the layers of colour and plaster from the previous renovations of the sanctuary. In the following years the wall paintings were restored, and the sanctuary was returned to its original architectural features. Recent conservation-restoration research and work conducted by the Croatian Conservation Institute since 2009 consist primarily of detailed research work, documentation and evaluation of past restoration interventions with the purpose of establishing a joint conservation approach about the presentation of the sanctuary as well as the selection of appropriate conservation materials and methods. This article brings a summary of all conservation-restoration work done since the middle of the 20th century up to the present day. |
