AES AETERNUM
Die Restaurierungsgeschichte der Bronzen aus Berlins Antikensammlung
With the rediscovery of ancient cultures, the desire for permanence of their material heritage became established, and thus the restoration of cultural objects. To understand their history provides an access to the technical possibilities and the practical procedures of the early restorers as well as to the aesthetic to archaeological ideas of the art dealers, collectors and custators in museums.
An important field of activities was offered by the ancient bronzes.
The collection of the Berlin Antikensammlung is one of the most important outside the Mediterranean area. This collection writes a history of restoration of almost 500 years, which becomes illustrative in its essential facets with the support of finds from other museums.
