rekonstrukcja rzeźby - Opis:
- The discussed bust of a Roman woman is composed of three parts: the head made of white fine-crystalline metamorphic marble, a bust made of volcanic tuff with a facing of colourful plates of limestone (breccia), imitating the folds of the gown and a base made of grey-blue fine-crystalline metamorphic marble. An iconographie analysis undermines the classical origin of the head and the bust. Formally, the head refers to female portraits from the era of Traianus. The bust has no analogy in that period and is regarded as modern. The micro- and macroscopic observation of the damage displayed by the object, observation in UV light, and the outcome of the examination of primary and secondary material cast additional light on studies on the object in question, conducted within the range of the history of art and the history of conservation. Former renovation of the head (probably chemical cleaning followed by polishing the surface) changed the sculpted form of the face. The range and type of damage of the head have no counterparts in the bust, which means that we are dealing with totally distinct and subsequently matched parts of the bust, differing as regards the time of their origin and history. Research based on iconographie analysis, studies concerning material as well as the range and type of damage mean that we should not exclude the possibility that the head is classical and could have originated in second century A. D. The bust is certainly later and, by referring to the history of the object, should be dated as eighteenth-century. The interesting and untypical conservation problem consisted of considerable gaps in the coloured facing imitating the folds of the gown. A reconstruction of the arrangement of the missing folds called for becoming acquainted with copious illustrations and devising a typology of the design of folds in the costumes of classical female busts. The emuing reconstruction was based on a multi-strata technique, based on epoxide resins; the outer layer was reconstructed with the help of HXTAL NYL-1 optically durable resin together with fillers. The appearance of the structure of the mssing facings was achieved by mixing suitable coloured putty, depending on the imitated breccia, and by using painting techniques on the surface of the putty after its binding.
