| Zusammenfassung: | The mausoleum of Philipp Bartholomae (born 7 January 1836, died 1 January 1901), a bourgeois brewery owner, and his wife Sophie (née Huck, born 4 July 1845, died 26 August 1898) counts among the most impressive sepulchral monuments in the Bergfriedhof cemetery in Heidelberg. From its monumental exterior architecture, richly adorned with sculptural works of art created by outstanding artists of the time, to the vault and its sophisticated decorative mural painting, every element in the design of the mausoleum bespeaks the will to represent status and prestige inherent in architecture typically found at the penultimate turn of the century. If nothing else, the high quality of accomplishment in all its details can be claimed to have contributed to the tomb’s generally good state of preservation. Pre-examinations conducted in 2011, however, indicated damage caused by humidity, which poses an acute threat to the integrity of the vault’s mural paintings. This Master-Thesis provides a concept for the effective conservation of the murals, based on detailed findings of the investigation into the cause of damage. In order to preserve the mural paintings, damages to the exterior structure must be considered and remedied. In the thesis, materials suitable for conservation will not only be proposed, but their effect on the structure will also be documented. These measures serve the aim of preserving the mausoleum as a total work of art by applying, prospectively, the conservation concept outlined in this thesis. |
