An investigation into adhesives to consolidate distemper paintings on canvas

Resumo

Este trabalho procura avaliar alguns dos adesivos tradicionais e modernos usados para consolidar pinturas a têmpera de cola sobre tela, especialmente aquelas pertencentes ao século XVI, também chamadas de sargas ou tüchlein. Essas obras de arte não são apenas difíceis de manusear, às vezes devido ao seu grande tamanho, mas também são inerentemente frágeis e / ou altamente higroscópicas. Esta sensibilidade deve-se em parte à natureza da técnica utilizada para a realização deste tipo de pintura, bem como à falta de verniz, o que poderia explicar o motivo pelo qual os métodos de conservação relacionados com este tipo de obra não foram contemplados no passado, em muitos casos. Esta investigação foi realizada mediante o uso de reconstruções históricas para avaliar e desenvolver estratégias de tratamento de têmperas de cola sobre tela, especificamente relacionadas aos problemas de consolidação que apresentam na superfície e no tratamento de tintas mates. O impacto de varios adesivos na superfície pintada foi avaliado recorrendo-se a várias técnicas analíticas antes e depois de submeter as amostras a vários testes com ciclos de humidade distintos. Essa informação podia ser empregue para ajudar os conservadores-restauradores que enfrentam problemas de consolidação relacionados com pinturas pulverulentas e obras de arte com problemas de consolidação superficial similares. Os resultados revelam que não há um adesivo perfeito para consolidar pintura mate nem um que possa ser eliminado por completo após a aplicação. Aquazol® 200 e Funori são os adesivos que apresentaram melhor desempenho, mas ainda assim introduziram alterações de cor e brilho, embora mínimas.
