The São Vicente Panels, a 15th-century European work, have been undergoing a restoration process since 2020. This series of paintings is considered an important artistic heritage of the European medieval period.

Cutting-edge technology was used for this restoration project, allowing for an in-depth analysis of the work. This advanced technology enabled experts to examine in detail the composition and state of conservation of the panels.

One of the main discoveries from this technological analysis was the ability to assess the extent of past restorations and repaints that were carried out over the centuries. This information is crucial to ensure that the current restoration respects the original intent of the artist.
