Mural

From: Amir Hosein Karimy <*ahkarimy*> Date: Thursday, June 26, 2003 · ahkarimy

I have a problem with a mural decoration from Safavid period (400
years old).  It is a painting on plaster with water soluble medium.
About 200 years after creating these decorations, they covered them
with a layer of gypsum plaster. How can i remove this plaster? With
mechanical method all the pigments will be removed. do you have any
idea about this?
