Definitions

  • the aim of this invention is to provide a method for restoring pictorial works which, in several stages, covers the analysis of the damaged parts, the relationship of the setting of the pictorial work with these parts, the analysis of colouring and the morphological analysis of the parts missing; later on this includes the making of a piece with highly similar characteristics which becomes appreciable through a detailed analysis of the pictorial work and which nevertheless possesses the chromatic and formal techniques of the rest of the item to be restored, and a method for reintegrating the missing pieces of a pictorial work by means of a computerized process and its application through transfer.
  • Figure 1 shows a graphic example of a pictorial work with parts missing.
  • Figure 2 shows a schematic view of the damage obtained by computer.
  • Figure 3 shows a schematic view of the realization process.
  • Figure 4 shows the profile of the strata of the paper.
  • Figure 5 shows another profile of the strata of the paper.
  • FIG. 6 shows the form of application.
  • Figures 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 show different examples of computerized reintegrations.
  • Figure 13 shows a view of the pictorial work that has to be restored.
  • Figure 14 shows an image which represents the computer treatment.
  • Figure 15 shows a view of the restored pictorial work.
  • FIG. 1 represents the pictorial work, 2 being the parts missing, and 3 an example of a background mass. 4 is a different chromatic background, 5 the photographed item, and 6 the process relating to photography.
  • 6.1 indicates the process with regard to the original, 7 being the scanning of the photography 6, or of the original 6.1, and 8 the computer treatment, 9 being the printing of the computer file obtained, and 10 the application to the pictorial work, with 11 being the profile of the thermic transfer paper strata corresponding to the paper support, 12 being the profile of the paper strata for the resin part, and 13 the profile of strata of the printed paper, and particularly the resin with chromatism.
  • 14 is the hot spatula for applying the thermic transfer paper.
  • Figures 7, 8, 9, and 10 show different types of reintegration treatment, so that each one of these, containing a similar scheme, can adapt to the style of the pictorial work, properly matching the style of the artist who created this, and in the backgrounds, for example 3 and 4.
  • 15 is the pictorial work, a pictorial item for example, 16 a well-defined missing area and 17 another well-defined missing spot.
  • 18 shows the computer, and 19 the reintegration of the missing part 16, 20 being the reintegration of the missing part 17.
  • simulations were made on the chromatic reintegration monitor screen, in order to be able to preview the final finish of the pictorial work without actually applying any treatment to the same. This enables us to determine the type of reintegration required and optimize the results.
  • the technique used is based on the juxtaposition of the computerized chromatic data previously obtained by means of printing a computer file 8 on a base of special paper which can be applied by heat to any support. Said support is known as "Thermic transfer paper".
  • the thermic transfer paper 11 is a material with a preparation of synthetic resin 12 which allows graphic printing 13.
  • This graphic information is the computerized artistic analysis mentioned above and does not come out on a conventional printer, but on a support which, after being applied by thermic techniques harmless for the rest of the original pictorial, provides as a result a piece of restoration which complies with the classic criteria of reversibility, stability, etc..
  • the first trials are made for the study of the paper, by compiling samples of already marketed types.
  • the papers are applied on different preparations of more general use, for example:
  • chromatic printing for the thermic transfer papers is done by means of a colour laser printer. These have a high resolution of the image, which go up to 1.200 p.p.p.. The choice of this sort of printing is limited by the characteristics themselves of both the paper used and by the specific techniques of the actual laser operation.
  • inks used in ink-jet printers are considerably affected in short periods of time when exposed to light, in an average of 50 hours direct exposure.
  • the image 15 is input to the computer by any of the methods presently existing: photographs, scans of the original, video or others.
  • Reintegration carried out with the computerized method will be applied in a medium which enables its transfer to the pictorial work.
  • Printing through this new procedure can be done in highly varied and different techniques, both pictorial, printing, photographic, laser etc., which depends on the transfer medium used, there being a broad range of these on the market, as well as being able to be done manually if the restorer considers this suitable or so prefers.
  • Computer processes furthermore offer the possibility to obtain chromatic measurement of the reintegration work carried out.
  • This new method of reintegration is applicable in any kind of pictorial work, whatever its physical characteristics may be.
