Los alumnos del Proyecto Comenius del IES Bilingüe Fortuny de Madrid visitan el Taller de restauración de arte "Da Vinci Restauro" y conocen, de primera mano, el funcionamiento del mismo y la importancia de las carreras de Ciencias y Tecnología unidas al mundo de la pintura. En esta ocasión entrevistan a la restauradora de arte Gemma Ramírez Millares.

Guys, where are we going? What is this? 00:00:14
Da Vinci Restauro! 00:00:44
Let's see... 00:00:46
Is it true? 00:00:49
And if we call? 00:00:50
Come on, let's go! 00:00:51
We wanted to know what you do here, what is your job exactly? 00:01:20
Well, we are dedicated to the restoration of works of art. We are two partners who met in the Faculty of Fine Arts and started this process about 12 years ago. 00:01:38
You have said that you had to study fine arts with your partner, but what else have you had to study related to science? 00:01:51
In my specialty, which was painting restoration, we had a degree that was physics and chemistry. 00:01:57
We rely mainly on chemical studies in science. 00:02:05
When the work arrives in our workshop, the first thing we do is photographically document all the details, 00:02:12
both in direct light and in bright light, in front, behind the canvas, 00:02:21
Any small detail, meticulous, is reflected photographically. 00:02:27
Then we proceed to the technical documentation of the work, 00:02:35
which is for what we have a laboratory. 00:02:39
We take samples, some paint scales of different colors, 00:02:42
a white scale, a blue scale, a red scale, up to five, 00:02:48
and also a cloth sample. 00:02:54
This is taken to a laboratory where some chemists do the technical study of the work. 00:02:56
And what is the information you get when you receive the laboratory results? 00:03:03
Well, I'm going to show you some stratigraphies so you can see what we're talking about. 00:03:08
Come with me. 00:03:14
The stratigraphy is a painting sample that is submitted to a treatment to be able to make a photograph through the microscope. 00:03:16
In this way we can see the preparation layer, we can see the different strata, the different layers of paint and finally the varnish. 00:03:31
And this is a radiograph. 00:03:43
It is a radiograph. 00:03:45
Does it form part of your work? 00:03:47
Also. The X-rays are also part of our work. 00:03:49
Even if you don't believe it, we don't just make X-ray plates when we break something or go to the doctor, 00:03:55
but the paintings and sculptures are also radiographed. 00:04:03
This is a work of a particular client who suspected that there could be another painting below his. 00:04:07
It was a painting of the 17th century and we took it to be radiographed. 00:04:13
The pigments with lower absorption of X-rays appear more clearly. 00:04:20
In this case, we can see a face. 00:04:27
Here you can see the frame of the bastion that tightens the wreath and in this case we are also seeing a small repentance in the Roman area. 00:04:31
For a hotel, we restored a virgin on a occasion that was surrounded by a black background. 00:04:41
We began to clean and we saw that the black was going very easily and the face of an angel appeared. 00:04:47
We did different cuts, seeing that there were pink tones, eyes, hair, and we told the owner. 00:04:54
The owner gave consent to raise the repaint and a choir of angels appeared behind the Virgin, all around her. 00:05:03
A radiography would also have given that image on a plate without raising the repaint and seeing if it was worth removing it. 00:05:12
In this case, it came out well. 00:05:21
A repaint can save a work from its destruction. 00:05:24
This was the case in the Civil War. 00:05:29
This is a table that belongs to a retable 00:05:31
in which both this Saint Paul and the Saint Peter 00:05:35
that appears on the other side of the retable were repainted. 00:05:40
This is the restored painting. 00:05:43
This is what the repaint was hiding. 00:05:45
This is the retable of St. Paul and St. Peter. 00:05:47
Thanks to the fact that the original painting was hidden, 00:06:04
these ugly repaintings were not deteriorated during the Civil War. 00:06:09
So, in this case, it was worse than the original. 00:06:16
But thanks to the fact that it was worse, it could be saved, no one was interested. 00:06:21
It is so ugly that we are not going to destroy it. 00:06:27
What products do you use to clean a painting? 00:06:30
Well, as I said before, we rely a lot on chemistry. 00:06:33
We work with chemical products. 00:06:37
We use different solvents that, mixed together, are able to remove the paint layer that we want to clean, 00:06:40
whether it is a repaint, remove a repaint or lift a layer of varnish. 00:06:49
Look, with the ultraviolet lamp, look, I can see ... 00:06:53
Well, you are going to tell me, what parts of this painting have repaints? 00:07:00
All this that appears here are repaintings that with the visible light are not perceptible. 00:07:05
If you want you can turn on the light. 00:07:21
And we see the difference. 00:07:23
We see the difference. 00:07:24
The ultraviolet lamp gives information about the varnish layers, about the repaintings, 00:07:26
it can even give us information about whether a signature is false or not. 00:07:37
Thanks to the ultraviolet lamp we have seen a false signature 00:07:41
and thanks to the X-rays we have also found works that could be called fake or simply non-contemporary to the artist in question, 00:07:46
due to the fact that the characterization of materials did not correspond with the time of that author in question. 00:08:01
but the scientific procedure helps, given that works of art in many cases have a lot of value, 00:08:10
it helps in its authentication and verification that a person, a collector, buys a work and that he really has an authentic work. 00:08:16
If you want to follow the processes that we are following with the restoration, 00:08:25
we are writing in our blog a new book with divulgative purposes, 00:08:29
so that normal people can see the different processes that are going on in the restoration 00:08:34
and so that everyone can learn. You'll see. 00:08:41
Thank you very much. 00:08:45
Ta-da! 00:08:49
