Digitalization of Bernini’s drawing Tondo depicting St. Joseph with the baby Jesus. Increasing knowledge and monitoring surface cracks

• Abstract:

  The main goal of the study carried out by ENEA described in this paper has been to create a three-dimensional virtual model of a sanguine drawing by Bernini, useful in the definition of the conservation status of the artwork and in facilitating the medium and long-term monitoring of the damage, highlighted and measured using Photogrammetry technique. The show up details will help further in-depth analysis to better know the historical, material, and iconographic characteristics of this drawing, crossing scientific data with archival data.
