Building on the success of the two conferences held to date—New Approaches in the Research of Written Cultural Heritage on Paper (2023) and Colour in Written Heritage: Multidisciplinary Research (2024), the latter of which marked our first international gathering—we are excited to announce the organization of a third conference this year. This event will further advance the multidisciplinary exploration of cultural heritage initiated by this series.
We therefore invite experts from a range of scientific disciplines, including conservation and restoration, art history, history, graphic arts, linguistics, library science, museology, archival science and others to join us at this year's conference.
