Abstract

An unusual combination of some modern technologies was used to create precise copy of a medieval lime Madonna with polychromy and the process is described in the paper. The used and combined technologies were computer tomography, 3D scanning and modeling with textures, rapid prototyping and 3D milling. These modern technologies are standardly used in relic documentation and restoration, but their combination in a synergic procedure is unique. The main reason for using them was owner demand for minimizing working time with the original statue that he needed it for exhibition. The time needed for working with the original statue was in the case about 20 percent of standard time and overall time needed for creation of copy was in the case about 40 percent of standard time.
