Eugene Lanceray: "Vachère et veaux" (Shepherdess with calves), 1872 Cast: Felix Chopin foundry,  1873

It is a bronze group (27.5 х 26 х 23.5 сm) depicting a shepherdess with three calves and a dog. The figures were mounted with screws on an approximately round solid plate with the help of screws.
​
In a transport accident, several screws broke and the figures fell apart, with the tail of the larger calf also being damaged at the base.
​
The following measures were taken during the restoration:
​
  • Cleaning the surface with ethanol
  • mechanical removal of all salt efflorescence
  • Assemble the figures with new screws
  • Reattach the tail with the help of a dowel and epoxy resin
