Scientific investigation on Pompei's plaster to characterize the painting technique, the remaking and the protection or restoration layers

The multidisciplinary pathway necessary to reconstruct all aspects for a possible approach to historical, artistic and architectural artifact, must create appropriate synergies in order to allow appropriate coordination, correct and integrated, of all various information coming from different areas of expertise, used anyway to define the precise state of preservation of the artifact concerned. To allow greater understanding of the work, the use of tools and techniques commonly used by the restorer and lab technician, facilitate the exchange of information and interpretation of the data collected, helping the interpretation of historical and scientific data according to their experiences and technical expertise. According to the above, it's therefore proposed a study aimed at diagnostic understanding of a work of Pompeian style, not yet investigated. The scientific investigations used, refers specifically to the painting materials and their stratigraphic articulations, related to the painting technique, the remakes, the layers of protection or restoration performed during its lifetime, as well as the alterations due to several factors, both environmental, both resulting from conservative practices. The data collected are of notable importance because, besides contributing to the identity work reconstruction, give new information on the procedures carried out by the culture of the time, to protect their cultural heritage.
