Стаття присвячена проблемам дослідження та реставрації
пам’яток іконопису, що містять кілька різночасових шарів живопису. На
прикладі ікони «Богородиця з немовлям» з колекції НМНАПУ описано
спосіб «віртуального» розкриття і всебічного дослідження пам’ятки для
виявлення техніко-технологічних особливостей та уточнення атрибуції
без порушення її структури.
The article is devoted to the problems of research and conservation
of iconographical monuments, which consist of several different layers of painting.
For example, the icon «Our Lady with the Child» from the collection of the National
Museum of Folk Architecture and Life of Ukraine defines the way of «virtual»
disclosure, as a comprehensive study of the monument to identify technical and
technological features and to clarify the attribution without violating its structure.
In conservation practice, icons that contain several layers of different-time
images occur: when under the upper visible layer of painting there is another (or
more), the older layer. Often, both layers have a significant artistic, aesthetic and
historical value. Then, restorers have to face the problem – how to save a later layer
of time and at the same time get the maximum information about the original image?
The article describes an example of «virtual» disclosure as one of the possible
ways of studying a monument. The article contains data obtained during the
conservation study, which can be used in the writing a similar scientific work. The
course of restoration measures can serve as an example of a careful balanced
approach to the problems of conservation with multilayered objects and a
comprehensive study of similar monuments of iconography.
The novelty of this method is in the application of a complex approach, in
combination of available optic-physical and physic-chemical methods of research,
stylistic and iconographic analysis and conservation approach in researching
Ukrainian icon paintings with complex stratigraphy, with painting layers from the
end of the XVII, till the end of the XVIII and Nineteenth century. A combination of
X-ray examination and computer processing of photography was used for the virtual
disclosure of a monument. Based on the complex research of the icon from the
collection of NMNAPU, a new attribution was proposed.
