Part 4/6:
The restoration journey unfolded methodically, with the team focusing on one surface after another. Diana recounted that nearly a year passed as they diligently worked to lift the layers of grime, allowing the historical significance of the artwork to shine through once again. Each brushstroke brought them closer to the goal of revealing the original beauty of the paintings.
This process of cleaning was not simply a matter of aesthetics. It was essential for the conservation of these works, preserving the narratives they held within their paint and fabric. Only after completing the extensive cleaning could the team truly begin the real restoration work, focusing on ensuring that these historic chapels would continue to tell stories for generations to come.
