TL;DR: The authors combine a structuralist examination of poetry and painting with new distinctions of ekphrastic poetry and recent philosophical debates, and show that Canto general is the textual eκrastic equivalent of mural art, a kind of linguistic companion that also elucidates the profound human complexities inscribed in the murals.
Abstract: This study combines a structuralist examination of poetry and painting with new distinctions of ekphrastic poetry and recent philosophical debates. Canto general is the textual ekphrastic equivalent of mural art, a kind of linguistic companion that also elucidates the profound human complexities inscribed in the murals.

TL;DR: In this article, the results of a multi analytical research undertaken on a mural and on a panel painting altarpiece authored by Jose de Escovar in 1603, one of the most productive and controversial painters working for Evora Archpiscopate at the end of the 16th century and beginning of the 17th century, were reported.

TL;DR: This paper proposes an image reproduction of a heavy damaged mural painting using a texture information extracted from another mural painting which has actually been restored by conservators and a traced drawing which the specialist guessed and drew.
Abstract: Not only geometric information but also optical information is needed to reproduce ruins using three-dimensional realistic computer graphics as they were when those were founded. In order to give a model a sense of reality, it is common to carry out the texture mapping of the photographed image. However such information can not be acquired from either weathered or partially destroyed ruins. While there are various conventional techniques for image restoration, which can overcome in the case of small missing and cracks, it is difficult to restore such a heavy damaged mural painting well when there is no information from the periphery. In this paper, we propose an image reproduction of a heavy damaged mural painting using a texture information extracted from another mural painting which has actually been restored by conservators and a traced drawing which the specialist guessed and drew. The restored image was used same pigment inks. Based on texture information from the restored image and a segmented traced drawing, we produce a restored image by applying the texture extension to each segment.

TL;DR: In this paper, the analysis of ten mortar wall samples regarding granulometry and mineralogy, by XRD, SEM, as well as, a study of resistance-breaking and the level of mechanical strength was determined by comparing the diagrams of power displacement, where the compressive strength of mortars ranged between 0.5-0.8MPa.
Abstract: Contemporary artist Spyros Papaloukas in 1932 undertook a major artistic venture, the painting of the interior murals of the Amfissa Cathedral (Church of the Annunciation) a cross-domed church built in 1868 on the ruins of an early Christian basilica. In this 1000 sq monumental work, Papaloukas, even though he follows the strictly established rules of Byzantine ecclesiastical art, he dares to attempt a new approach to the aesthetic merits of Byzantine iconography by introducing elements of the post- Impressionists, the Fauves and the Nabis. Following our earlier work of spectroscopy of mural paintings in this Cathedral, here we present the analysis of ten mortar wall samples regarding granulometry and mineralogy, by XRD, SEM, as well as, a study of resistance-breaking and the level of mechanical strength was determined by comparing the diagrams of power – displacement, where the compressive strength of mortars ranged between 0.5-0.8MPa.
