ABSTRACT: Santa María La Blanca, a medieval Church in Sevilla, was renovated in the XVII century. At that time a unique ornamentation program was developed in light of the brief pontifical in 1661about the immaculate conception of Mary. The restoration in 2015 of its plasterwork and wall paintings has allowed the recovery of the images and texts of its program, an iconographic message about Marian praise and eucharistic cult that is analyzed in this study.    KEYWORDS: Justino de Neve; Murillo; Faux Plasterwork; Litanies; Baroque Festivity.    RESUMEN: La iglesia medieval de Santa María la Blanca de Sevilla fue renovada durante el siglo XVII, desarrollándose su ornamentación tras el Breve Pontificio de 1661 sobre la concepción inmaculada de María. La restauración en 2015 de las yeserías y pinturas murales de su interior ha permitido recuperar las imágenes y textos del programa de exaltación mariana que, junto al culto eucarístico, integran su mensaje iconográfico.   PALABRAS CLAVES: Justino de Neve; Murillo; yeserías fingidas; letanías; fiesta barroca.

This chapter briefly reviews the art history from 1230–1450 CE in order to better understand the cultural profile of the rabbi, and to evaluate the contribution of the wall paintings in his house as indications of the artistic horizons of German Jews of the fourteenth century. It also shows how Jews had to abandon the art that they cherished for generations, yet they found ways to keep alive their fascination with the beautiful and to nurse their aesthetic needs. The interior synagogue of Santa Maria la Blanca of Toledo and that of the recently reconstructed Sinagoga Mayor of Segovia manifest a profound attachment to Islamic public architecture. Jews showed great appreciation for the decorative value of their Hebrew alphabet. They also learned to paint inanimate or geometric images in miniature letters on the covers of their Bibles.

ABSTRACT Excavations of the remains of the medieval church of Santa Maria di Campogrosso (Sicily) were conducted by the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology of the Polish Academy of Sciences as part of scientific cooperation with Soprintendenza per i Beni Culturali ed Ambientali di Palermo. Based on the records of post-medieval historians, the construction of the church was placed in the second half of the 11th century, which contradicts the findings of architectural historians, who dated the building to the 13th-century and even later. As a result of archaeological excavations carried out in 2015–2018, it was possible to locate unknown fragments of the church’s structure and the remains of the cemetery adjacent to it. The 14C dating carried out for samples obtained from the walls of the existing building as well as from bone remains from the churchyard in combination with stratigraphic information from archaeological trenches and the chronology of coins indicates a high probability of the church construction in the second half of the 12th century and confirms the end of the monastery complex existence at the end of the 13th century.

This paper deals with a part of the decoration in the presbytery of S. Maria Antiqua in Rome, which has as yet remained in the shadow of the famous early medieval wall-paintings: the stucco-relief frieze that was employed as a running pattern on the eastern and western walls. A Coptic style may be recognized in these stucchi which, as is proposed, were executed by recent immigrants from Egypt in Rome at the time of the church’s foundation in the late 6th century.

This paper deals with the development of a multidisciplinary study on the current state of conservation of the facade of the Arciprestal Church of Santa María de Morella (Castellón, Spain), a work of the Gothic period of great historical and artistic value. The aim of this diagnosis was to undertake the preventive conservation actions required and increase the knowledge about the conservation of paintings on stones. During the diagnosis scanning, electron microscopy was demonstrated to be a valuable analytical method for wall paintings on stone. The facade, which since its construction has not undergone major architectural changes, has reached our days as it was configured in its creation, adding the traces of the passage of time and interventions that have suffered polychromies. Because of the conservation situation, it was decided to have an interdisciplinary project for the structural study of the work, an exhaustive study of the materials and their state of conservation. The study of the materials includes the identification of stone supports, mortars, the pictorial technique of the original and added polychromies, and the superficial patinas. On-site studies were carried out by ground penetration radar (GPR) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF). Among the techniques used in laboratory were optical polarized light microscopy (MO-LP), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy with microanalysis (SEM-EDX) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The study allowed to determine the different pathologies of alteration and degradation of stone substrate and polychromies, chromatic alterations, biological patinas, etc. During this study, it was demonstrated that the diagnosis of wall paintings is a complex issue that needs to be addressed in a multidisciplinary approach, where scanning electron microscopy with microanalysis is the key methodology to get a deeper understanding of subsurface characterization of wall paintings and highlight the weathering processes. In a second phase of previous studies, this technique (SEM) has been used in assessing the viability of consolidation systems and cleaning both the stone and the polychrome.
