Resumo

Neste trabalho, propomos um método de análise digital do estado de conservação de uma tela, a fim de resolver algumas dificuldades relacionadas com a reintegração pictórica de pinturas que apresentam um número excessivo de diferentes lacunas em termos de tamanho e comprimento. O estudo de caso concreto é um óleo sobre tela de pequena dimensão realizado por um artista desconhecido, onde as múltiplas áreas com lacunas se caracterizam por bordos complexos, difíceis de analisar, classificar e de localizar graficamente. Requeriam uma avaliação cuidadosa do método a ser utilizado durante a intervenção de reintegração pictórica. Através do uso de métodos de análise de imagem, extraímos semi-automaticamente o gráfico do estado de conservação, trazendo diferentes propostas operacionais virtuais.
