Two paintings by Paolo Veronese, Saint Jerome in the Desert and
Saint Agatha in Prison, dating to 1566 and located in the church of
San Pietro Martire in Murano, have been recently restored, together
with their seventeenth-century gilded frames. Before the
restoration, the paintings were in bad condition, very dark and
scarcely readable, due to the application of varnishes that had
oxidized over the years. The rich and unusual seventeenth-century
frames, sculpted and gilded, were also in bad condition. Both works
are relatively unknown because of their position in a lesser-known
location and the poor condition they were in before the current
restoration. The restoration has brought back to life the brilliant
colours of the canvases and the vigorous gilded carvings of the
frames, giving also the occasion to study their provenance and
commission as well as their conservation history.
