Very often traces of paint and pigment have been found on medieval sculpture. Presently, little is known about the effects of laser radiation on polychromy. It is important to protect and preserve these traces during any cleaning or restoration process. The absorption properties of polychrome materials are likely to be different from those of the underlying stone or substrate and as a result special care must be taken to avoid any damaging or discolouring phenomena associated with laser cleaning. Spectroscopic methods (XPS, AES, reflectance spectroscopy) together with optical microscopy, digital photography and X-ray diffraction analysis have been used in a series of experiments on simulated samples of common medieval pigments (vermilion, red and white lead and ochres in linseed oil) on limestone plates, in order to study the reaction of these materials to infrared laser radiation. 相似文献

Lasers have served as cleaning tools for historical objects and artworks for about 40 years. In many cases, superior results of laser cleaning were achieved with respect to traditional methods. In this technique, contaminations on the surface of the object are ablated by laser irradiation. In order to apply laser cleaning method to fragile materials such as paper made of cellulose or parchment, heat deposition to the bulk should be minimal, to prevent damage. In this work, it is demonstrated that laser pulses with femtosecond (fs) duration can exhibit non-thermal ablation of contaminants on paper samples. In particular, laser cleaning studies are concentrated on paper samples with sizing. Fs laser cleaning is performed on artificially soiled and aged samples, as well as on historical ones. The laser used in the experiments has pulse duration of 550 fs and 1030 nm center wavelength. The fluence of the laser is varied and the post-cleaning statuses of samples are investigated. The analyses are color changes, fiber integrity, chemical composition changes and mechanical strengths. These results show that fs lasers can be very efficient in cleaning paper samples, yielding minimal discoloration and no damage to fibers distinguishable on microscopic examination. The presence of sizing also provides further protection against possible side effects. 相似文献

The main damage of architectural glazed ceramics in the Palace Museum was investigated and the photo resistance, thermal resistance of protective materials as well as the protected performance such as hydrophobicity, freeze-thaw resistance, bending and compressive strength of the polymer-applied ceramics was tested. The results showed the main damage of glazed ceramics was the shedding of glaze layer and the change of environmental water and temperature especially subzero was the main reason for the glaze shedding. The photo-resistant and thermal-resistant of protective materials fluorine resin and the compound materials composed mainly of the fluorine resin were better than Paraloid B72 and the compound materials composed mainly of Paraloid B72. The wrapping method was selected for the protection of glazed ceramics and the hydrophobicity, freeze-thaw resistance, bending and compressive strength of the polymer-applied ceramics were improved, especially protected by fluorine resin and the compound materials composed mainly of the fluorine resin. The optimum polymer could penetrate into the damaged seriously glazed ceramics and play a hydrophobic role in the protection. The report will be useful for the preservation of damaged seriously architectural glazed ceramics. 相似文献

Elemental analyses by laser induced breakdown spectroscopy as restoration test on a piece of ordnance 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy was used to investigate the composition of a gun found in the Adriatic seabed and kept in the “S. Castromediano” Provincial Museum in Lecce (Italy). Optical emission spectra of the laser-induced plasma from the surface of the piece of ordnance were recorded before and after its restoration. The metal alloy of the gun was determined through the identification of characteristic atomic emissions and confirmed through microanalysis carried out by energy dispersion X-ray spectroscopy. Experimental results evidenced that the gun is of bronze and revealed that elements composing the encrustation and noxious for the object conservation, such as calcium, were removed successfully during the cleaning operation. Performed elemental analyses confirmed that laser induced breakdown spectroscopy is a useful diagnostic tool to test the restoration degree of artworks. 相似文献

The development of laser cleaning as a conservation treatment has imposed a need for the evaluation and assessment of other cleaning techniques. The use of more traditional methods like abrasive cleaning, steam cleaning and chemical cleaning has relied so far on visual assessment, unlike much of the research applied to laser cleaning. A conscientious use of these cleaning methods requires their assessment as well as the need for a comparison based on a common methodology. A topographical assessment of laser cleaning, abrasive cleaning, steam cleaning and chemical cleaning (using hydrofluoric acid, ammonium carbonate and EDTA) is presented. Topographical variations induced on marble, oolitic limestone and architectural terracotta surfaces are assessed by means of light interferometry, showing the potential of this non-contact and non-destructive technique for surface studies in conservation. The comparison between cleaning treatments is based upon key parameters associated with cleaning surfaces. The aesthetic impact of these treatments is verified by means of optical microscopy and quantified by colour measurement. Chemical analysis of the cleaned surface (EDS) is performed to investigate the removal of surface pollutants and the presence of residues. Finally, petrographical analysis was used to investigate the removal of pollutant layers and its effect on surface texture. 相似文献

The paper presents the use of laser radiation for cleaning of beeswax treated granite stone. In the early sixties, prestigious restorers decided to apply molten beeswax on the granite surface of valuable monuments with the aim of preventing the erosive action of atmospheric agents. An interesting example of this treatment is the Renaissance Frieze in the Cloister of the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia (Northwest Spain). With time, salt accumulation beneath the beeswax layer has caused an intense surface disintegration of granite. Conventional cleaning methods can destroy sculptured details of these emblematic monuments. For this reason, excimer laser cleaning has been chosen as a promising non contact, selective and environmentally friendly cleaning technique to be studied.The cleaning tests have been carried out using an excimer laser (ArF, 193 nm), with fluences between 0.5 and 2 J cm−2 pulse−1 and a spot area of 0.025 cm2. Samples representing beeswax films over Roan granite have been irradiated and their degree of cleaning has been studied as a function of the number of pulses and the laser fluence.Cleaning efficiency has been evaluated by FT-Raman Spectroscopy, allowing to establish the beeswax ablation threshold and the ablation rate.Excimer laser cleaning allows a progressive and controlled removal of a few tenths of micrometers of beeswax per pulse without damaging the underlying granite stone. 相似文献

The utilization of laser light to produce fine and selective cleaning of superficial deposits and encrustation from stones was originally proposed more than 20 years ago by John Asmus who performed pioneering trials of laser cleaning on stone façades in Venice, Cremona and Padua. The opportunity to collect stone samples from these sites allowed us to carry out an original study aimed at evaluating the conservation state of stone surfaces cleaned 10–20 years ago by means of three different techniques: Nd:YAG laser radiation, micron sandblasting and chemical pads. Samples of various stone types, as Istria limestone, Botticino limestone and Nanto sandstone were collected and examined by means of optical and SEM microscopy, FT/IR, and EDAX analyses. The results provided preliminary indications that the state of conservation of stone surfaces previously subjected to laser cleaning is generally better in comparison with those which concurrently underwent mechanical and chemical cleaning. 相似文献

The historical paper samples from XIII–XIX c. are characterised by means of techniques of the optical spectroscopy. The influence of pulsed laser cleaning by means of the Q-switched Nd:YAG laser at 532 nm on the spectra and also cleaning results of stained paper documents are reported and considered. In the absorption spectra, the minima around 280 and 370 nm are identified and luminescence reveals a characteristic band centred around 430 nm. The laser cleaning diagnosed by the recording of the LIF spectra with 266 nm excitation shows a profile of increasing intensity and preserved structure. The LIPS spectra reveal sharp emission lines recorded at 612.5, 644.2, 646.5, 671, 714.9, 720.2 nm (Ca I), 589.4, 616.4, 780 nm (Na I), and 766.5: 769.9 nm (Mg I) which are ascribed to the surface contaminations. The intensity decrease of these peaks is in accordance with successive laser pulses and monitors the cleaning progress of the stained paper. 相似文献

A medieval wooden panel chamber was rediscovered during reconstruction of the Tetzelhouse in the Saxon town of Pirna. Ceiling and walls are made from 600-year-old fire wood panels fitted together. The complete removal of layers (limewash, plaster, glue and dirt) from the wall panels was the precondition for conservation of the wood panels and for the restoration of the wooden panel chamber. The cleaning was carried out with a pulsed Nd:YAG laser after basic investigation of ablation mechanisms of the layers on the old wood. All layers of the different materials were removed both from the normal surface and out of depressions and woodworm holes with a special range of laser parameters, without damaging the wood. Within this range of parameters the laser cleaning is a self-limiting process. The health hazard from emitted waste products were determined and checked with work place measurements. The laser cleaning of the wooden wall panels was completed in March 1999. A uniform visual impression of all panels was obtained with a warm wooden colour tone. 相似文献

Within the conservation programme of the mausoleum of Theodoric, located in Ravenna, Italy, we applied a new cleaning procedure based on the use of a recently developed Nd:YAG laser system, suitably equipped in this case with long optical fibre cables for the transmission of laser radiation to work sites on the façade. The intervention of the laser technique was required to complete the cleaning of a decoration surrounding the monolithic dome, after conventional cleaning methods had been applied with unsatisfactory results. Preliminary laboratory analyses on stone samples collected from the dome and subjected to laser treatment indicated that this technique was effective and could fully preserve the lime–Ca oxalate film existing below the thick layer of black crusts. Before starting the operative phase on the mausoleum, it was necessary to solve the practical problem of keeping free access to the monument during cleaning operations, which hindered the location of the laser in close proximity to the sites to be cleaned. This was achieved by preparing long fibre cables (up to 50 m) which permitted the successful completion of the cleaning while leaving the laser body far away from the dome. 相似文献

The paper focuses on funding issues facing arts and cultural resources worldwide. Inter alia, current public policy consensus
encourages cultural resources to raise money from voluntary contributions at the gates in order to address some of the shortfall
in public funding. The paper considers the British Museum, London, as a case study. The objectives of the paper are twofold.
First, to elicit individual preferences for future managerial initiatives that could have an impact on visitors’ willingness
to financially support cultural resources by making a voluntary contribution during their visit. Second, the study combines
observed and unobserved heterogeneity in order to explain a greater source of variation on individuals’ decision-making process.
Overall, the results provide directions for government policy into widening and deepening participation for the arts and culture.
In addition, the results also provide support towards a reconsideration of curatorial procedures towards a motivational segmentation
of demand for the arts and culture. 相似文献

A series of light-fastness tests were conducted on a group of ethnographic objects that will be on exhibit at the Smithsonian Institution Arctic Studies Center, a recent addition to the Anchorage Museum at Rasmuson Center in Alaska. The objects surveyed belong to the collections of the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History and the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian. This work was designed as a feasibility study on the use of a micro-fading tester as a non-contact and non-destructive technique to evaluate the light-stability of materials present in ethnographic collections. A broad range of objects containing a wide variety of materials were selected for the study. The materials investigated included a variety of dyes applied on silk, cotton, and wool substrates along with some unusual materials such as tanned skin and seal gut skin. The results from this investigation have allowed establishing exhibition recommendations taking into consideration the sensitivity of each object, light levels in the museum building, and estimated light exposures based on the duration of the exhibit. The micro-fading tester has proven to be a very useful tool for determining the light-stability of ethnographic materials without causing any harm to the objects. Objects containing equivalent materials are usually classified under a general category based on their probable sensitivity to light. However, micro-fading test results have permitted the detection of dissimilarities among some of these objects, which could be associated to variations in prior fading histories, the quality of raw materials, and different preparation methods. 相似文献

Laser cleaning was applied to remove aged and soiled oil paints of the 19th century from weathered, brittle sandstone surfaces. In contrast to other tested cleaning methods, the laser technique allows the removal of the oil paint layers with a minimum of material loss in brittle zones. The cleaned test areas have been investigated by optical and scanning electron microscopy as well as by colour measurements. The investigations have shown that the dirt and the oil paint layers can be removed by laser cleaning without affecting the original sandstone surface and that the pores can be opened again. The brown shade after cleaning is not caused by laser interaction with the sandstone surface but by historic impregnation with linseed oil. Immediately after cleaning, a treatment with chemical consolidants is necessary to preserve the brittle sandstone surface. Sustainable consolidation could be problematic in some areas, because the laser cleaning also preserves heavily damaged, crumbling zones of the carvings. For economic reasons, laser cleaning should be applied only in the most endangered zones of carvings and combined with classical methods (organic solvents and scalpel). 相似文献

SMART CLEAN is an innovative Nd:YAG laser system that has been designed to optimize laser cleaning procedures, especially for the treatment of altered stone surfaces. The project, originated by the co-operation of researchers and enterprises involved in optoelectronics system development, was aimed at improving the intrinsic features of the laser source, as well as some practical aspects, in order to facilitate laser application in the restoration yard. Emission characteristics were suitably tailored to obtain effective removal of alteration layers, and to minimize possible side effects. In particular, the pulse duration of the SMART CLEAN laser was set at 20 μs, by means of a proprietary design of the power supply. This was in order to reduce the risk of both mechanical and thermal damage to the artwork substrate, which is more likely to occur with short and long laser pulses, respectively. Moreover, this pulse duration permitted a reliable transmission of high laser energy through long optical fibres (50 m), which allowed easy cleaning operations on façades. The laser system was tested on a large variety of lithotypes and in operative cleaning interventions on Italian monuments. 相似文献

This article evaluates the compatibility of the adaptive reuse of heritage buildings in Egypt given that a growing number of projects featuring innovative building reuse are currently emerging nationwide. Accordingly, this research focuses on three objectives. The first objective is the evaluation of indicators drawn from literature, namely architectural integrity, public perception, form and new building function, with reference to the specific case of Alexandria National Museum. The second objective is the investigation of the sustainable adaptation of the Museum. The third objective is the assessment of the capacity of the heritage building to meet the criteria for reuse. The integration of the literature review and the case study is verified by examining research indicators. Semi-structured interviews with stakeholders, including laypeople and professionals are utilised in the assessment of Alexandria National Museum adaptive reuse project. Research results show that interviewees agree that the process preserved the building's architectural integrity and that its new cultural function (i.e. as a museum) represents the optimal reuse of the building. In addition, the research highlights diversity amongst the stakeholders and the drawbacks of the sustainable adaptation indicator, including the absence of community participation. 相似文献

The paper presents strategies for the conservation of historical textiles in Egypt that have been in uncontrolled storage and display. The silk textile is highly decorated, multicoloured and dates to the Ottoman period, and was exhibited in case # 12014. The textile has various types of deterioration. An examination and analysis of the textile was undertaken in order to develop a plan of conservation treatment. FTIR was used to identify the kinds of dyes and organic stains, and XR-D was used to identify mordants and dust. Light microscope and SEM were used to identify the kind of fibers, their condition and surface morphology. The effects of cleaning materials on the natural dyes were tested. The researcher designed a new metallic frame support system which has advantages over the wooden frames commonly used in Egypt. This presentation will review the conservation treatment step by step. Poultices were used to remove all the sticking cardboard and adhesive. Old conservation repairs were removed. Separated parts were supported. Cleaning included mechanical and wet cleaning. New silk fabrics dyed with natural dyes were used to complete the missing parts. The textile was supported on new linen fabric which was stretched on a metal frame. The method of exhibition will be discussed. Photographs are included to document the conservation process. 相似文献
