We are sharing a Maltarti feature on the restoration process of Olof Gollcher's paintings that have recently been returned to the Studio of Palazzo Falson.
These six paintings were restored by Prevarti and the restoration project was made possible thanks to funds obtained from the Majjistral Action Group Foundation under the LEADER Programme 2014-2020. The funding was made available through the Majjistral Action Group Foundation Measure 1: Restoration of Assets and Sites of Artistic and Cultural Value.
Displayed once again in Olof’s studio at Palazzo Falson, these paintings shed light on Olof Gollcher as an artist in his own right. Besides collecting various different artefacts, Olof was an active artist in the early 20th century. These six works of art feature seascapes and landscapes, a theme typical of most of his paintings.
In this feature Caroline Tonna, curator of Palazzo Falson together with Pierre Bugeja, founder and senior conservator of Prevarti talk about the restoration process.
