Song, Hyeong Rok, and Young Hoon Jo. "A Study on Digital Color Reproduction for Recording Color Appearance of Cultural Heritage." Journal of Conservation Science 38, no. 2 (April 30, 2022): 154–65. http://dx.doi.org/10.12654/jcs.2022.38.2.09.
Full textAbstract:
The color appearance of cultural heritage are essential factors for manufacturing technique interpretation, conservation treatment usage, and condition monitoring. Therefore, this study systematically established color reproduction procedures based on the digital color management system for the portrait of Gwon Eungsu. Moreover, various application strategies for recording and conserving the cultural heritage were proposed. Overall color reproduction processes were conducted in the following order: photography condition setting, standard color measurements, digital photography, color correction, and color space creation. Therefore, compared with the color appearance, the digital image applied to a camera maker profile indicated an average color difference of Δ10.1. However, the digital reproduction result based on the color management system exhibits an average color difference of Δ1.1, which is close to the color appearance. This means that although digital photography conditions are optimized, recording the color appearance is difficult when relying on the correction algorithm developed by the camera maker. Therefore, the digital color reproduction of cultural heritage is required through color correction and color space creation based on the raw digital image, which is a crucial process for documenting the color appearance. Additionally, the recording of color appearance through digital color reproduction is important for condition evaluation, conservation treatment, and restoration of cultural heritage. Furthermore, standard data of imaging analysis are available for discoloration monitoring.

Full textAbstract:
In the field of wall paintings studies different imaging techniques are commonly used for the documentation and the decision making in term of conservation and restoration. There is nowadays some challenging issues to merge scientific imaging techniques in a multimodal context (i.e. multi-sensors, multi-dimensions, multi-spectral and multi-temporal approaches). For decades those CH objects has been widely documented with Technical Photography (TP) which gives precious information to understand or retrieve the painting layouts and history. More recently there is an increasing demand of the use of digital photogrammetry in order to provide, as one of the possible output, an orthophotomosaic which brings a possibility for metrical quantification of conservators/restorators observations and actions planning. This paper presents some ongoing experimentations of the LabCom MAP-CICRP relying on the assumption that those techniques can be merged through a common pipeline to share their own benefits and create a more complete documentation.

Full textAbstract:
The restoration and conservation of monuments and archaeological sites is a delicate operation. It requires fidelity, delicacy, precision and archaeological authenticity. The aim is to reveal, recreate as accurately as possible the characteristics of an archaeological site or part of it. Research during the last two decades has proved that 3D modeling, or the digital documentation and visualization of archaeological objects in 3D, is valuable for archaeological research. As well, as for conservation and presentation to a wide audience, as it allows the creation of realistic and accurate digital copies of archaeological objects. In the past, 3D modeling technologies were prohibitively expensive and too technologically specialized to be integrated into most historical heritage projects. However, advancements in computing and digital photography over the past decade have resulted in several low-cost, user-friendly options for 3D modeling, using photogrammetry. The latter has been used successfully for documentation of historic cultural. In recent years, this technology has become increasingly more popular for archiving, which provide the 3D model and digital ortho-image using high accuracy dense 3D points. The study has opted for the technique of terrestrial and aerial photogrammetry by 3D surveys of architectural elements, to develop an archetype of the deteriorated Islamic Marinid site (a dynasty between the 13th and 15th centuries), and the Roman site (25 BC), located at the Chellah archaeological site in Rabat and Salé cities. However, the recognition of the importance of these Islamic sites, in terms of the evolution of Moroccan Islamic art, requires the combination of large-scale scanning capability of unmanned terrestrial, aerial photogrammetry and the photorealistic rendering of 3D, as well as exhaustive research on the history of this cultural site. The data acquired build an architectural database to archive and retrieve the entire existing architecture of monuments. This study has been completed by photogrammetrists, architects, and restorers.

Full textAbstract:
Mina’i ceramics dating to the late 12th and early 13th century made in the Kashan region of Iran represent a novel period of overglaze enamelling technology in ceramic history. New colours were used to produce stylistically attractive and dynamic polychrome motifs. Due to their archaeological context, and popularity in the art market since the mid-20th century, these objects often have complex conditions involving reconstruction and overpainting. The aesthetic and technological significance of these pieces warrants further study, but in practice, removing restorations can lead to structural destabilisation, requiring time-consuming and potentially unplanned for conservation treatment. To determine if it is possible to gain useful information from the study of these artworks without disturbing existing restorations, a group of objects were drawn from the Sarikhani and Ashmolean Museum of Art and Archaeology collections. The objective of this project was twofold, first to assess the merits of the imaging techniques for understanding condition, and second to propose a protocol for imaging with the aim of encouraging collaborative projects with international partners. The techniques used in this study include digital photography under visible and ultraviolet light, infrared reflectography, and radiography. The results show that important information invisible to the naked eye can be obtained about the decorative surfaces, using ultraviolet light and infrared reflectography. Digital radiography proved to be equally effective when studying the condition of the ceramic body. The results of this project were used to produce guidance on these techniques as a collaborative documentation package for the study of Mina’i ceramics.

Since 1988, the professional staff of Architectural Preservation Studio (APS) has been involved with the conservation of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater in Mill Run, PA. Designed and erected from 1935 to 1939 as a weekend home for the Kauffman family, the complex consists of the main house and guest house.<br><br> After five years of reports and prototype repairs, we produced a two-volume master plan. Using original Frank Lloyd Wright drawings from Avery Library as background drawings, we measured every surface and reproduced the drawings in CAD, also developing elevations of every room. Stone-by-stone drawings of every flagstone floor and terrace scheduled to be lifted were also created using overlapping film photography that was assembled into a photo mosaic. By 2005, we designed, administered and completed a four-phase exterior restoration, with the paint-stripping and repainting of interior rooms being performed during the brief winter period when the building is closed to the public on an ongoing basis.<br><br> In 2016, we were invited back to the site to review conditions and advise on routine maintenance. At that time we proposed to re-document the buildings, this time using laser-scanning. Laser-scanning of the exterior was performed in May of 2016, and of the interior in March 2017, each over the course of four days. This paper will make a comparison between manual and digital techniques in terms of Fallingwater’s documentation.

Сonservation of archaeological handmade ware, especially of the large size, has certain featuresand difficulties due to firing at low temperatures and the composition of the molding mass (the clay wascoarse with large inclusions).Such vessels usually come to our time in a worse condition than pottery, mostly in a form ofa collapses broken into many fragments, with a fragile surface, so they require a special approach to thechoice of methods, techniques and materials used for their restoration. In such cases the main task forthe conservator is to find such methods of working with handmade vessels, which on the one hand wouldbe completely safe, on the other – would provide the comprehensive study, restoration and preservationof broken archaeological ceramics.It should be noted that with the development of digital technologies in archaeology and restoration,the methods of photogrammetry used in non-invasive research of archaeological sites have spread.The article deals with the application of photogrammetry methods, in particular 3-d modeling duringrestoration work with handmade ware of a large sizes. We try to describe in detail the way of creatinga three-dimensional model at the stage of photo-fixation of the archaeological vessel before the beginningof restoration measures using as the example the handmade large pot (korchaga) of Sabatyn culture ofthe Late Bronze Age.In our case, a three-dimensional model of the exhibit was created to simplify the selection of fragmentsfor gluing (almost similar in shape and size) before the dismantling of a partially glued exhibit of 147fragments. Prior to photography, all fragments of the vessel were marked with paper stickers.Agisoft Photoscan v1.4.4 software was used for 3D reconstruction of the object.

Full textAbstract:
Repeat photography, the process of locating the camera position of an old photo and taking a new photo from this position, is utilized to protect our natural heritage, by measuring landscape changes between old and new image, and to conserve and recover our architectural and archaeological heritage, by observing changes between images taken before, during, and after conservation efforts or destructive events. Most importantly, repeat photography—in short, rephotography—is connecting us to our heritage on all levels from personal to global: while rephotographing, we connect with the old image and its creator and—when viewing and comparing the old image and the rephotograph—we connect with the tangible, intangible, and natural heritage shown in the images by observing changes and continuities. In this paper, we review publications and applications employing rephotography. We discuss the organization, retrieval, and presentation of rephotographic compilations, their generation by different image registration techniques, and their conservation as rephotographic heritage. Further, we describe challenges in rephotography, discuss how they differ from standard challenges in photography, computer vision, and image registration and present both analog and digital solutions and tools used in practice by rephotographers to address said challenges.

Abstract. The restoration of the small cloister of the former monastery of Sant’Agostino, located in the upper town of Bergamo is the last act of the redevelopment of this important monumental site. During the work, several graves were found underground. The stone slabs that covered them show fragments of epigraphs allowing to date the structures for a period from the 14th to the 15th centuries which needed to be deepened. A knowledge project, specifically intended for the interpretation of the inscriptions was then initiated. To this end, an experiment was carried out, aiming to compare RTI photography and digital photogrammetry combined with the use of grazing light.

Full textAbstract:
En prenant acte des transformations induites par les technologies numériques au sein des institutions patrimoniales, cette thèse propose d’analyser l’impact de ces technologies dans le domaine particulier de la conservation-restauration des collections muséales. Ce travail part de l’hypothèse selon laquelle la discipline de la conservation-restauration, loin d’être neutre, construit notre compréhension et notre perception de la matérialité des objets du patrimoine. Aussi, l’objectif de cette thèse est de montrer en quoi les technologies de l’information et de la communication utilisées au sein de la discipline participent à l’élaboration de cette compréhension et de cette perception et orientent ainsi notre rapport cognitif et sensoriel à la matérialité des objets du patrimoine. Il s’agit également, dans la perspective des humanités numériques, de voir comment le numérique est susceptible de s’adapter aux objectifs de la conservation-restauration tout en reconfigurant aussi les conceptions mêmes des notions de conservation, de restauration, de matérialité, de transmission et de patrimoine. À ce titre, cette thèse s’intéresse aussi à la façon dont les technologies numériques contribuent au partage des savoirs et d’une nouvelle appréhension sensorielle relatifs à la matérialité des objets pour un public plus large que le seul public des spécialistes de la conservation-restaurationWhilst acknowledging the mutations induced by digital technologies within cultural institutions, this thesis proposes to analyse the impact of these technologies in the particular field of conservation and restoration of museum collections. This work assumes that the discipline of conservation-restoration, far from being neutral, builds our understanding and perception of the materiality of cultural heritage objects. As a result, this thesis aims at demonstrating how communication and information technologies, used within the field of conservation-restoration, have a crucial role in the development of that understanding and perception, and how they guide our cognitive and sensory relation to the materiality of cultural objects. Moreover, in the framework of digital humanities, this work also aims at studying how digital tools can adapt to conservation-restoration purposes on the one hand, while reconfiguring how we conceive the very notions of conservation, restoration, materiality, transmission and cultural heritage on the other hand. In this perspective, this thesis also deals with the way digital technologies contribute to the sharing of knowledge and to a new sensory apprehension of the materiality of cultural objects for a wider public than that of conservation-restoration specialists alone

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the chapter was to design a sensory experience that would enable contemporary users to appreciate artifacts that are remote in terms of time, space, and contemporary cultural sensibility. The chamber tombs, a glorious example of Samnite civilization (ninth through third century B.C.) offered a unique possibility to pursue this objective thanks to the peculiarities of the architectural paintings which paratactically decorate the chamber tomb walls. Rather than “freeze” the observers in a service space, the paintings seem to encourage them to explore the chamber and synaesthetically interact with the built environment. From a contemporary perspective, these pictorial dynamics epitomize the emerging paradigm of real and virtual space organization where the real and the virtual combine and guide users towards interactive fruition. The developments in range-based and image-based techniques have made the surveying procedures more rapid and the representations more attractive. Remote fruition has become more flexible thanks to the advent of information and communication technologies.

Full textAbstract:
The case of the frescos by Palomino in the church of Santos Juanes in Valencia is a challenge that requires new alternatives to traditional mural restoration. Part of the paintings burnt in 1936 were detached and partly relocated in the vault afterwards. One third of the paintings, which were not detached, have been restored. A new phase of intervention has now begun, using a system of aesthetic reconstruction generated by digital images. This technique, already used successfully in a previous intervention, aims to recover the pictorial and functional atmosphere of this religious space.In order to fulfil the goal of trying to give a global solution to Palomino's work, it is necessary to find a chromatic solution to the apse of the church due to the absence of its original frescos. We propose the use of video mapping based on a historical black and white photograph taken by J. Alcon before the fire. Taking chromatic and iconographic references from other pictorial works that are in the same space-time context as the original painting and were executed by the same author, an aesthetic approach to the work would be made through the technique of video mapping. Mapping allows the viewer to see the pictorial and functional values of the artwork, without using an invasive form, and favours a vision of its historical-artistic context. Without physically altering the heritage, the final audiovisual presentation can reach multiple levels of information, helping the observer to understand, for example, the technique and pictorial materiality of the frescos and, at the same time, to discover the different iconographic representations.On the other hand, the successful system realised in the first phase was based on digital treatment of another historical photograph in black and white. This procedure was carried out in several ways such as straightening, rectifying and scaling of historical photograph. After the previous process, the following step was a digital colouring based on the superposition of the captures of the existing fragments to the picture taken by J. Alcon, always taking the colours of the original painting as a reference. The creation of the virtual final image also requires colour management calculations to be transformed into a printed or projected reality. The last step is to print and transfer the image to the wall. This was done with Papelgel®, a temporary support for the transfer of inkjet and pigmented printing inks. In this case the main novelty is the use of an adhesive pattern which improves the transfer of digital print fidelity and maintains the breathability of the wall. In the current phase of intervention, this system is intended to be applied to the rest of the vault once the detached fragments have been relocated to their original position.This project is an important attempt in the search for perfect harmony between the different computing elements. Information technologies offer a new and wide range of possibilities to preserve cultural heritage and participate directly in the intervention processes required for their conservation and restoration.

Conservation and enhancement of ruined fortified systems in Tanaro Valley (Piedmont)The contribution reports on a research concerning the preparatory investigation of some fortified systems of Tanaro Valley (Piedmont) in view of their restoration. The research highlighted the strong connection between the castles and the memory of events and characters that were linked to these architectures; the relationship between landscape and ruins that, today, represents a potential resource for the territory; the willingness of local authorities to improve knowledge, protection and enhancement of this heritage; the need to investigate theoretical and methodological issues and define the proper procedures for the conservation, restoration, safeguard, maintenance and management of a widespread and vulnerable heritage. The study, taking advantage of interdisciplinary contributions, used innovative instruments for the survey and monitoring of this heritage, as well as graphic and digital restitution techniques to propose to the scientific community –and communicate to the native population– the interventions of restoration, conservation, enhancement and management of these fortified systems. The research demonstrates that particular attention has to be paid to these less-known historical architectures that can however contribute, as effectively as the most famous and eye-catching fortification systems, to the political and social development and to the historical identity whose recognition, preservation and valorization are strongly hoped for.

Full textAbstract:
Digital technicals for the study of the Defensive Heritage: “Puerta de Almenara” and south walls of “Palacio del Gobernador” and “Plaza de Armas” of the Castle of Sagunto (Valencia)The use of digital documentation and registration techniques in Cultural Heritage is becoming more common every day, thanks to its ability to capture a large amount of data in a fast and efficient process. Its high geometric precision, thoroughness, performance retrieved and especially the generation of high fidelity and precision of architectural good assets make these tools optimal for the planimetric surveys. The work of intervention or conservation of cultural heritage requires a previous graphic registration using different techniques available. This article presents a combined method of implementation of various digital techniques that allow to achieve the most accurate graphic documentation possible. The different results obtained from the use of photogrammetry by drone or by manual camera are discussed. It is intended to seek the standardization and optimization of the process of documentation and value of the Cultural Heritage by combining these techniques. These techniques have been used in a real case: the three-dimensional modeling of various parts of the defensive set of the Castle of Sagunto (Valencia), called the “Puerta de Almenara”, which gives access to the square of the same name, on the eastern side and some walls of the fortification. The Castle of Sagunto is a mosaic of the different cultures who occupied it (Iberians, Romans, Goths, Arabs...). The fortification is located on top of a hill of the Sierra Calderona, controlling even the Mediterranean coastal road and the communication route with Aragon. During the last years, the castle has been immersed, for almost 20 years, in various works of consolidation and restoration to initiatives of the Institute of Cultural Heritage of Spain.
