So, they have restored the infamous Villa of Mysteries in Pompeii. Above, are old photos of several famous scenes painted in Pompeii. Note that they had already been restored at least on several occasions over the years. But these images are what we are left with until now. They have just re-opened the site and are proudly displaying new restorations of those iconic images. Just from the one image (below) it seems to be a great tragedy! The light is skewed, and all wrong in the detail below exhibiting lighting instead of Light. All the subtly is gone, and what a great shame because now it is gone forever! But, I am curious to see what they have done to the others before I really get mean.
Heavens....
Reworked not restored. Ouch...more like ugh. Isn't it always the modern way to "restore" as if we know the truth. I wish it were possible to explain that conservation is often a better path than "restoration".
ReplyDeleteEstate proprietors likewise should have the option to furnish rental customers with simple admittance to the property as a neighborhood key holder who can meet and welcome them and be close by as a crisis contact or secure key lock box (it is prescribed to change the code consistently). https://yes-mallorca-property.com
