Projects
Of many works done, the restoration of eighty stained glasses from the shrine "Maria Auxilidora" in Lima was a significant and challenging experience.
Report of Stained Glasses restoration Lima, Peru.
The Shrine Maria Auxiliadora built in 1916 by the architect Ciriaco Vespignani, represent one of the most significant architectural monument of the Peruvian capital.
The temple in romanian/byzantine style, holds several pieces of art and a magnificent collection of stained glasses procedent from Austria dated 1920s.
In 2011, I directed the restoration of the stained glasses' collection and other pieces of art within the shrine.
