  At this point some of these “accidental” restorations have to be on purpose.

    modern day relics: boost church attendance and pilgrimage by butchering one or your ancient sculptures or paintings. it’s about as honest as claiming you have the left testicle of joseph in your church.

  There’s simply too many things to restore. They are building metro in my town now. They started working on a new line, digging under first street and boom, Roman graveyard. Had to examine and remove 500 graves before they could continue. It’s like that all the time. So yeah, sometimes people don’t wait for specialists or permits and fuck things up. It’s not that often and it happens to some less important works. It’s only in the news because it’s funny.

    Yeah there’s too much stuff to restore.

    Every time anyone wants to do anything new in my city, there’s a choir of old people moaning about the removal of old stuff.

    Seriously… if they want to keep that shit, put it in a museum. We don’t need your old railways in the center of the city for memorials. We don’t use them. You don’t use them. They haven’t been used for 70 years. The same kind of shit is present in each and every city throughout Europe. It has no preservation value. We can remember your great grand uncle’s achievement in other ways. Take a photo and look at it as fondly as much as you want.

    It’s apparently wildly surprising that humans were all over Europe thousands of years ago. Come on. They had feet, of course they shat in the shrubbery where we live. We do not have to preserve all of it.

    I surely don’t hope future generations dig out the shit I’ve posted online.

    When they invented LIDAR scanning and flew over Germany, they found a lot of old stuff in the dense forests that had never even been investigated. It was silently decided not to even attempt to dig all that shit out. Good call Germany. We don’t need any more stone axeheads in the museum. They’re not that different, and I don’t care if you can trace your lineage to the man who made it. We’re not keeping that rock.

    People should have a right to be forgotten.

    Ötzi never asked to be dug up. People made stories about how he died of cold. Other people say it was sacrificial. The latest I’ve read was that he a tumor in the ass.

    Have some decency. Leave that shit alone. The wearing of time is prettier than restoration anyway. It’s a solid reminder. Restoration of artifacts is like botox to a 70 years old… you’re gonna look like shit either way.

    One starts to get the impression that they should just have the archeologists dig the tunnel in the first place, and budget the project like one big find.

    As someone who is currently feeling disheartened at… gestures wildly… I thought a nice, light piece about a botched art restoration in Spain would be a safe reprieve… But nope, you managed to tie it back in to world politics. Congrats I guess.

    I think I need to get off social media for a bit.

      It’s only politics in that that’s where they “work”. They’d be just as worthless anywhere else.

  It lookes like they ruined more than just the face. All the decorations to the right of the face looks different as well.

  How do you fuck up so badly?

  • BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    I kinda wonder if it’s panic at some point. Like they make a fuck up and then start going “maybe this will fix it, maybe this will fix it” and it’s just getting progressively worse but they can’t stop themselves.

    I see this with my kids sometimes, without the panic, they see that they’ve messed up a line when painting and they try to fix it but they do the same thing just slightly over, rinse repeat until a 7mm line is now 30mm thick.
