The restoring of the paintings in the chapel Cavalcabò in the church S. Agostino in Cremona (painting by Bonifacio Bembo and others). This chapel in one of the most important exemples of late gothic art, which survived the restoration during the 18th and 20th centuries mainly thanks to Guido Gregorietti’s work in 1951-1952.

Acqua di calce has proved to be a fixing and consolidation agent thanks to its basic solution and the small quantite of calcium hydroxide. Moreover it is compatible with the original plastering and the restering materials. The invention was studied carefully because of technical difficulties like the consolidation of the internal parts of the plastering. Realised on fragile materials without any pre-consolidation. The results are now discussed, more than 10 years later.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
