| Abstract | ||
| The field of ceramics has changed over time, leading to an enrichment of ceramic art with various expressive artistic trends, each with its own philosophical and technical dimensions. This has influenced many artists, including Hassan Heshmat, who developed distinguished techniques seen in the artwork discussed in this study. Over time, the artwork suffered damage, including a deep crack that affected the glaze layers and reached the internal ceramic lining. Additionally, the external jute fabric supporting the artwork's frame was also damaged. This study focuses on restoring the artwork using modern scientific and technical methods, ultimately restoring the piece to its original state—one of the primary goals of restoration. One of the most important steps in the various stages of treatment and maintenance is to complete the missing parts of ceramic tiles. The crack was filled with materials such as (kemaboxy 150 + Fiber glass) with microballoons, small glass fillers, and layers of porcelain colors, and finally a transparent layer (Araldite 2020). | ||
