Wallpainting Conservation Glossary now in 13 languages available

 

The European Illustrated Glossary of Conservation Terms for Wall Paintings and 
Architectural Surfaces, the so called EwaGlos, is now in 13 languages 
available: A consortium of seven institutions - supported by associated 
partners and external experts  – has developed the richly illustrated glossary 
in eleven languages: Concise texts and demonstrative illustrations are designed 
to help readers quickly grasp and understand each term. The project specialised 
in wall paintings and architectonic surfaces because the terminology differs 
between the different fields of materials. Since the end of October 2015, the 
glossary is available to the general public as an inexpensive, not-for-profit 
print publication: 

EwaGlos - European Illustrated Glossary of Conservation Terms for Wall 
Paintings and Architectural Surfaces

English definitions with translations into Bulgarian, Croatian, French, German, 
Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Romanian, Spanish and Turkish, ed. by Angela Weyer, 
Pilar Roig Picazo, Daniel Pop, JoAnn Cassar, Aysun Özköse, Jean-Marc Vallet and 
Ivan Srša, Petersberg 2015 (=Series of publications by the Hornemann Institute

After a worldwide survey the consortium published a revised digital edition in 
December 2016:

Meanwhile two national teams of experts developed two further translations:

Conservation at Minia University in Egypt) and   

-  Japanese (responsible: Prof. Dr. Takeshi Ishizaki, Tohoku University of Art 
and Design, Institute for Conservation of Cultural Property, and ICOMOS)
