The paper focuses on the sculpture of Saint Jan Niepomucen by Krzysztof Perwanger. The object was brought as a destruct into the workshop. It was in pieces, and broken. 25% of the original surface and a very scarce photographic material presenting the figure before its destruction, as well as the particular demands from the investor and the Conservation Department constituted a real challenge to the conservator. The investor opted for the maximal reconstruction of the missing areas and unpreserved fragments, whereas, the conservation authorities allowed for sculpture binding filling of the figure's body so that it could present some positive aesthetic value, and still remain the object of the cult once transported back to Tolkmicko.
