Conservation treatment- "Venus" from Meroe

A unique excavated stone sculpture from the ancient Roman city of Meroe in Sudan, underwent extensive treatment, to remove all repairs and coatings and stabilize the deteriorated sandstone structure for future display. Documentation recorded all past interventions. Cleaning revealed original details of polychromy and a form which was previously obscured by extensive restorations.
