Abstract

Many mural paintings stored in museums suffer from the heavy loaded added gypsum layers to the background. Currently anew way will be used for support the back ground of mural painting using the nanocalcium hydroxide which added to the background of it. This nanomaterial is smoothly penetrate inside the mural painting structure then it combines with CO2 producing CaCO3 the original binder in all mural paintings especially fresco paintings, The mechanical characteristics were tested to determine the change in properties of the interior structure of the treated Coptic fresco painting
