Radio Vaticana – В базиликата на Витлеем е открита двуметрова мозайка изобразяваща ангел

Векове наред, под слоеве мазилка, прах и сажди се е криел един ангел, за чието съществуване никой дори не предполагаше.

Radio Vaticana – 白冷耶稣诞生大殿内的第七个马赛克天使被重新找到:文物修复者倍感喜悦

(梵蒂冈电台讯)意大利文物修复专家日前利用热敏成像技术重新找到了白冷耶稣诞生大殿内的第七个马赛克天使。新发掘的马赛克天使高约三米,在这之前,所有人都认为它已经被毁坏。圣殿内原有的2000平方米马赛克画仅有十分之一保存至今。 意大利年轻的文物修复家斯塔里涅里(Silvia Starinieri)女士向梵蒂冈电台表示:“我们从文学作品和历史文献得知,在大殿结构的中央部分原有马赛克装饰。这些装饰可能在1800年的内饰装修时被掩盖起来。我们利用热敏成像技术分析墙面灰泥内可能存在的脱离与腐坏情况时,也注意到在灰泥层下可能存在另一种材料。之後经过数个星期的努力,我们发掘了一整块天使马赛克画。” Read the complete article on zh.radiovaticana.va
