Project

Stucco Marble

The creation of Baroque altars was usually a complex process where architects, carpenters, sculptors, painters and plasterers worked together to achieve a result to suit the commission. Technique and materials were chosen according to the wishes and wealth of the client and depending on local possibilities. In Slovenia, wood was the most common material, and both the architectural parts and the sculpture were (sometimes later) polychrome-plated.
