| Abstract: | The "Antwerp Passion Altar" in the Vienna Votivchurch is a masterpiece of Old Netherlandish art production and one of the most important examples of well-preserved retables with original polychromy. In addition to the art historical research, which discusses the different guild marks and the original masterpiece, this diploma thesis is dedicated to a review of its conservation history and the detailed documentation of changes, that have characterised the conserved appearance. Based on physical and condition surveys a concept for its conservation is developed and then practically applied. The focus lays on conservation measures. Additional interventions serve to restore a well-cared appearance in view of the renewed exhibition in the museum of the Vienna Votivchurch. |
