(personal communication 5/2024) 50 Chronology of the ICWL conservation works: In the conservation campaign of the years 2006, 2007, and 2008, the paint layer was consolidated. In the following years, all polychromed and gilded surfaces were checked for flaking before taking any further action. Consolidation had to be repeated on many parts of the retable; sometimes consolidation materials were changed to enhance the effect of consolidation. Parts of the retable which could not be treated from the scaffolding had to be dismantled. These include: the gable (pediment) with the central cartouche decoration (dismantled in 2006), semi-capital of the left pilaster (2006), painted boards that flank the inner side of the central niche (upper board in 2007, lateral boards in 2008) and the pilasters (2008). All elements were reassembled finally in 2012. The work on the statue of Holy Christ was finished in 2014. 51 Although Paraloid B 72 is more stable than Plexigum PQ 611, the latter was chosen because it can be dissolved in aliphatic solvents. Due to working in an environment without proper ventilation, special attention had to be given to health safety issues. 52 Accoya® from pinus radiata (https://www.accoya.com/uk/) (26.5.2024) 53 The system is an experimental set up. It is necessary to note that overload may cause severe flaking in the paint layer. Regular monitoring is obligatory. To improve the climate situation in the area of the retable, the small rosette window behind the retable was closed with Perspex, a decision that was informed by monitoring the climatic conditions with and without glazing. 54 see 36 55 Nina Erhardt, Möglichkeiten der Ergänzung großer Fehlstellen an fraßgeschädigtem Holz.
