PHOTOS: 'Preventive conservation' at Venetian palace

Art restorers in Venice are conducting an ambitious monitoring project to analyze and intervene early on precious artworks and elaborate ornamentation at a landmark Venetian palace that was at the heart of political life in the powerful maritime Republic of Venice. The project at the Doge’s Palace, handled by the Fondazione Musei Civici of Venice, began in June and will last roughly 14 months. Restorers will examine every centimeter of the surfaces of the palace — known as Palazzo Ducale — which contains some of the world’s most magnificent artworks, including paintings by Tintoretto and Titian. The Italian government has provided 500,000 euros in funding for the project.
