Abstract: | This master dissertation is focused on art technological examination of the late medieval furnerary hatchment for Heinrich von Nettlingen (1520) from St. Michaelis Cathedral in Hildesheim. Furthermore, a treatment proposal for conserving the furnerary hatchment is developed and executed. The results of art technological and art historical investigation indicate the composition of the textile, stiffened helmet bands. In addition, the original appearance of this object, such as the original paint layering respectively gilding with silver leaves and the missing crest, are ascertained and compared to a heraldic graphic account of the family coat of arms. Furthermore, these findings are compared to the art technological studies of late medieval shields in Germanisches Nationalmuseum Nuremberg. |
