COSTS AND TIMING
The plan for the restoration of the Altarpiece of Pietro Lorenzetti at la Pieve in Arezzo is sponsored by R.I.C.E R:C.A., authorized and directed by the Diocese of Arezzo-Cortona-Sansepolcro and by the Superintendencies for Archaeology, Fine Arts and Landscape of Siena, Grosseto, and Arezzo.
R.I.C.E R:C.A. has taken on the task of soliciting donations to finance the project, following a period of diagnostic testing, studies, cleaning tests, discussions with eminent scholars, and research. The results of this study, along with the results of the scientific tests, helped make the decision to undertake a complete restoration of the work.
The next steps of the project include: cleaning of the pictorial surface, conducted entirely under a microscope; stucco work in the gaps and pictorial restoration of the entire work. These steps will require an increased level of funding compared to what was previously forecast.
