AzLab#77: #Lookup: Unveiling the origin and outlining the future of tile coverings on cupolas and spires
June 22nd, 2022 | 18h00 [Lisbon Time Zone - UTC+1] | via Zoom [session to be held in Portuguese]

 

In the next AzLab, we are invited to look up! Have you noticed the quantity and diversity of tiles applied on domes and spires, and that go so often unnoticed? 
 
The researcher from the Hercules Laboratory, Mathilda Larsson Dias Coutinho, shares the first results of an ongoing investigation about the exterior tilework of domes, spires and pinnacles. Through the articulation between art history and physical and materials sciences, the ongoing research aims to rediscover these coverings, contributing to their preservation.
 
Registration via Google forms or by e-mail (redeazulejo@letras.ulisboa.pt).
Once the session is scheduled, each participant will receive the link and a password.

 

Invited speaker:
Mathilda Larsson Dias Coutinho [Laboratório HERCULES, Universidade de Évora]
 
NOTE: This session will be recorded and partially made available on the YouTube channel of the Azulejo Research Network.
