唐三彩(당삼채) 재현에서 색보다 소성(焼成)에 의한 우연성이 본질이라고 지적합니다. 본 재현은 Tencent Hunyuan HY 3D로 모델링한 뒤 Adobe로 이중 소성의 유약 효과를 시뮬레이션해, 우연적 결과를 '제어 가능한 파라미터'로 변환한 사례로 소개하며 이것이 보존인지 진화인지 질문을 던집니다.

唐三彩の本質は「色」ではなく、焼成による偶発性。 今回の再現は、 @TencentHunyuan HY 3Dでモデリング → Adobeで二度焼きの釉薬をシミュレーション。 偶然を「制御可能なパラメータ」に落とした瞬間。 これは保存か、進化か。

"Ancient" portraits brought back to life using ChatGPT. It's amazing what AI can conjure up here. Just as amazing is how much “handiwork” went into the old portraits. Some of the images are more painted than photographed.

Arkeonews: Frozen but Not Forgotten: 2,500-Year-Old Tattoos of Siberian Ice Mummy Digitally Reconstructed. “Using high-resolution near-infrared imaging and 3D photogrammetry, researchers have re-examined the preserved tattoos of a 2,500-year-old Pazyryk mummy from the Altai Mountains. The tattoos, hidden beneath layers of mummified skin and centuries of degradation, are now being brought back […]

MIT researcher Alex Kachkine developed a method to physically restore original artworks using printed, removable digital overlays. A 15th-century oil painting was repaired in just 3.5 hours—66x faster than traditional methods.

Alex Kachkine demonstrates the first physically-applied digital restoration of a painting using a color-accurate printed laminate mask.
5,612 damaged areas filled in just 3.5 hours — 66× faster than traditional inpainting.
The work combines engineering precision with conservation ethics, offering new hope for thousands of hidden artworks.

The Nature article (vol. 642, pp. 343–350, 2025) presents a method to physically apply digital inpainting using a bilayer pigment film. 5,612 losses in a 15th-century painting were restored in just 3.5 hours—66 times faster than traditional methods. This technique could help bring thousands of artworks back into public view.

Physical restoration of a painting with a digitally constructed mask - Nature

A digital restoration technique for damaged paintings was developed, in which a colour-accurate bilayer mask of printed pigments on polymeric films was used, reducing treatment time and cost while adhering to ethical conservation principles.

Gateway Arch - St. Louis, Missouri. Photographer and date unknown, but it was probably taken in the late 1960s or early 1970s based on the other images on the strip. I did a heavier amount of digital restoration to this image and I thought people might like to see what the scan looked like without any edits. (I am not a professional artist or restorer. I'm certain other people could have done better.) Scanned from the original Kodak Tri-X Pan 35mm negative.

Super interesting article about digital restoration of van Goghs paintings returning the hues of non lightfast and long faded pigments. The journal has more articles on the use of pigments by van Gogh, who wrote about them extensively to his brother.
