In January, at the Ambrosiana Library, the interdisciplinary project ‘Luini in nuova luce’ began, involving the VENERANDA BIBLIOTECA and PINACOTECA AMBROSIANA, the FONDAZIONE TRIVULZIO, POLITECNICO DI MILANO, and other scientific researcher and universities. It consists in running some scientific analyses on a selection of paintings by Bernardino Luini, to deepening the knowledge on them and developing an integrated activity of valorization.
Aims&goals
– Developing and experimenting (on a consistent sample of Ambrosiana’s works of art) a methodology of investigation and documentation that can support both the judgment of authenticity and historical-critical reading, and the definition of the conservation status, to allow enhancement respecting the needs of the protection
– Identifying the components and the organizational and technological requirements of a preventive and programmed conservation system. It must be strongly correlated with all routine management procedures of the works and the museum spaces; including security measures, as well as the most directly related functions of public use and enhancement projects of all kinds.
3DSG Specific activities
We conducted the 3D high resolution photogrammetric survey of the works and the data processing for creating a georeferenced database of scientific information acquired during the project.
