The Palace of Monaco: Restoring Renaissance

In the Palace of Monaco, gigantic Renaissance frescoes hidden for centuries under several layers of plaster and overpainting were brought to light, nearly 10 years ago: 600 m2 of decor combining mythological and grotesque themes of exceptional quality.

 

Since then, restorers, historians and curators have been joining their forces to unlock the secrets of these monumental artworks – whose origins can be traced back to the 16th-century Genoese masters. Together, they will decipher and reconstruct this precious heritage, too long forgotten. Will they be able to restore it to its original colors and former glory?

 

Immerse yourself in an extraordinary restoration project led by a team of seasoned experts, combining meticulous craft methods, cutting-edge technology (laser, multispectral imaging, etc.) and an eco-responsible approach, and coupled with a fascinating historical investigation.
