Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

現在、絵画の復元は様々な目的・手法により数多く制作されているが、学術的な方法論の構築と研究者間の意識の共有が不十分であるため、復元の水準の格差が大きく、鑑賞者にも正しい情報が伝わりにくい状況となっている。今後、文化財保存や教育普及、文化外交、美術史研究など様々な現場で、絵画の復元研究はさらに重要な意義を持つことが予想されるが、本研究では復元研究や復元制作、公開を担っていく研究者、実技者、科学者、博物館関係者らのネットワーク作りに寄与することができた。
