I'm slow to news that a 10-year project to conserve the Vatican's Hall of Constantine had been completed earlier this year. The work, undertaken by the Gabinetto di Ricerche Scientifiche under the directorship of Fabio Morresi, has focused on the study and conservation of these vast frescos undertaken by Raphael's workshop including collaborators such as Giulio Romano, Gianfrancesco Penni and others. Watch the video above to see some of the painstaking work undertaken as part of the campaign of restoration.
