Samples of stucco were examined by means of optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy with microprobe, X-ray powder diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and laser ablation mass spectrometry equipped with plasma source spectrometry. On the basis of the results obtained art historians made new hypotheses on the biography of the artist and on the historical location of his birthplace.

  • Greek Interior Decoration: Materials and Technology in the Art of Cosmesis and Display
    CHAPTER 41 Greek Interior Decoration: Materials and Technology in the Art of Cosmesis and Display Hariclia Brecoulaki Introduction The concept of “ordering” and “adornment” is expressed in Greek culture with the word cosmesis. The interior space—be it domestic or public—adapted to architectural features and building functions is transformed into a suitable setting for the human activities that are to occur there; a setting where various movable objects and fixed decorations inter- act to order and adorn it. The interior space becomes its own closed universe, cosmos, combining a variety of materials, textures, colors, and light. To enhance a temple with monumental statues, to adorn a tomb with paintings or a house with mosaics, to display domestic paraphernalia in gynaecea (women’s quarters) or bronze armor on the walls of andrōnēs (men’s dining rooms), to furnish a king’s residence with sumptuous couches and artworks; these are acts that reflect specific social motivations and cultural behaviors, religious beliefs, political environments, and aesthetic values. We limit our focus to the fixed elements of interior decoration in ancient Greek domestic space (wall paintings and mosaics), movable artifacts (such as freestanding sculpture and furniture), and panel painting. We shall briefly touch on the interior deco- ration of Greek public spaces. While the function of architectural sculpture was decora- tive from its origin, statues and large‐scale painting in Greek public buildings assumed religious or civic roles and cannot be considered decorative in the current sense of the word (Ridgway 1971, 337). Likewise, the accumulation, with no primary planning, of countless dedications within public buildings, particularly in temples (although on view for worshipers and visitors), did not reflect a predefined concept for interior decoration.

  • Plaster, Stucco & Wallpaper
    Practical Conservation Guide for Heritage Properties Plaster,Stucco & Wallpaper Introduction The conservation of plaster, stucco and wallpaper requires a highly trained professional or a knowledgeable and practiced homeowner. Although routine maintenance may seen straightforward, damage can occur to the unique materials in your heritage home as a result of inappropriate conservation efforts. This guide includes general information on plaster, stucco and wallpaper and briefly mentions guidelines for conservation to aid you in selecting the proper professional for the task at hand. In this guide: Plaster Plaster Plaster consists of a mixture of powdered lime or gypsum Decorative Plaster with water, applied to the interior surfaces of a building. Stucco The mixture was traditionally applied on walls and ceilings over a lath made of wooden bands secured to Wallpaper wall studs or ceiling joists, but has more recently been Samples and applied to heavy-duty metal mesh. The application of Documentation plaster traditionally included three coats. The first, or Maintenance and Repair base coat, was strengthened to best adhere to the lath, Safety Precautions: with binders of animal hair and aggregates of sand, for Lead-based Paints example. The second coat consisted of a similar composition and texture, but aimed at ridding the surface of irregularities. The final application often saw the addition of lime to whiten and create a smooth surface free of imperfections. Paint and wall paper would be applied directly on this top coat. Contemporary wet plaster has typically replaced lime with gypsum, a hydrated calcium sulfate or sulfate of lime that hardens more quickly. Modern-gypsum plaster does bond to the traditional plaster well, aided by lime’s softer and more porous character.

Ceci est essentiellement dû à la rareté des représentations fgurées. Cependant, des fouilles récentes ont permis de découvrir quelques fagments de sculptures en stuc et en argile, en même temps que des moules doubles en mortier de gypse qui éclairent d’un nouveau jour les techniques de fabrication des sculptures. Le procédé de fabrication d’une sculpture est identique pour les deux types de matériaux puisque le modelage de la fgure se fait grâce à l’application successive de couches d’argile et de stuc (ou les deux), de plus en plus fnes et pures.

  • A Short Survey of Stucco Decoration in the Mahabat Khan Mosque, Peshawar
    9 Ancient Pakistan, Vol. XIV A Short Survey of Stucco Decoration in the Mahabat Khan Mosque, Peshawar IBRAHIM SHAH AND NIDAULLAH SEHRAI Introduction The Mahabat Khan Mosque (Pl.. 1), "the chief congregational mosque of the city", is located in the Andarshahr area inside the Asamai Gate of the walled city of Peshawar. It was built by Mahabat Khan Mirza Luhrasp, son of Mahabat Khan Zamanah Beg, governor of the "Subah-e- Kabul wa Peshawar", during AD 1660 and 1670 (Shah, 1993, p.151; 1994, p. 499; 1999, p. 97). The mosque, in view of its gigantic structure and sur;nptuous embellishment, is justifiably regarded as " a real ornament of the city of Peshawar" (Dani, 1969, p. 175). The decorative work of this mosque falls into three major classes: a. Calligraphic Specimens b. Painted Decoration c. Stucco Relief Work The principal author has already published articles on the first two classes of the decoration (Shah, 1996, pp. 389-410; 1997, pp. 91-112), we, therefore, confine here to examining decoration executed in stucco. Stucco Relief Work Stucco, in this mosque, is used for three main purposes: 1. as mortar for laying bricks in courses (or as binding agent). 11. as plaster for covering naked bricks to get a smooth ground. iii. as a medium for relief work-tracery, stamped or moulded. The first two being out of context here, we, therefore, confine ourselves to the description of the third purpose, i.e., stucco relief work. The term 'stucco' is" applied to fine exterior or interior plaster work used as a three dimensional ornamentation, as a smooth plaster surface or as a wet ground for the painting of frescoes" (Encyc.

  • A Common-Sense Way to Apply Stucco to Concrete Block
    Make it Stick: By Russ Flynn Concrete block makes a super base for Portland cement-based plaster (stucco). The two materials are made from the same basic ingredients and they are extremely compatible. Prop- erly done, it’s a great combination. The Block The concrete block should have an open or coarse texture. This enables the stucco to interlock with the sur- face of the block, providing a me- chanical key bond (Fig. 1).

If the water beads up as if on wax paper, you can forget suction bond Your remain- ing options are the use of a bonding agent or metal reinforcement. If the water is absorbed into the block, a suction bond is possible. However, there is one other consid- eration, the absorption rate of the block.

  • Natural Finishes Overview
    Page 1 Natural Finishes Overview Natural plasters and finishes are a great alternative to the conventional finishing products that are available on the market. The ones that are just riddled with toxic chemicals! Most people don’t even realize the negative effects that these products have on their health. Indoor air pollution and toxic off gassing is a whole subject unto itself. But by using natural plasters and paints, you avoid the added toxicity of cement stucco, drywall, chemical paints, and the destructive industry that produces them all. Natural plasters and finishes can be applied to cob walls or even to drywall board! The majority of natural plasters and finishes are made from a combination of these simple ingredients: Clay, sand, straw, lime, kaolin clay, wheat paste, pigments, and water. Copyright 2015 - This Cob House LLC - All Rights Reserved Page 2 Plastering your cob home is like putting the icing on the cake. Once you have built your walls, built your roof, and installed the windows and doors then you can begin to plaster your building. The plaster will protect your walls from rain on the outside, and it will protect your cob walls from any crumbling off on the inside. A good foundation and a good roof overhang (a good hat and boots, as they say) will protect your cob home from most weather and rain. Some people decide not to plaster the exterior walls of their cob homes and they are fine in many cases, but you will still get deterioration. It is recommended to plaster your walls to protect them from driving rain and frost.
