Abstract: | The subject of the diploma thesis is the technological examination, conservation and restoration of two wooden, polychrome reliefs depicting the Annunciation to Mary and the Adoration of the Shepherds. The original origin is unknown. However, the striking polychromy is typical of works of art from the Spanish-speaking world. On the basis of the investigations, a concept for conservation and restoration was developed. The focus of the work was on the conservation of the supports and the frame as well as on the removal of subsequently applied coatings. |
