The restoration of Edoardo De Albertis' Winged Victory - Cleaning

Restoration reveals gold leaf gilding on the Winged Victory of the right flagpole located on the Vittoriano's main elevation

The restoration team carried out the removal of oxidation patinas on the upper part of the flagpole and the cleaning of the lower part through the removal of oxidation with ion exchange resin packs, applied through a brush and removed with soft brushes.

Where gilding is not present, the gaps were retouched with natural pigments-natural sienna and black-through the application of Laropal A81 as a binder.

A specific protective coating was applied to the entire surface.
