Description:
Aim of the project was to restore the original splendour of the 18th century along the Carrera del Darro, which is one of the most important streets of Granada, using similar working methods and materials as those at the time of construction. The paintings were uncovered, consolidated, restored and protected for the future. The facades of the neighbouring houses were as well restored following the criteria of C. Brandi, with extensive documentary research being undertaken prior to the work itself. The facades of the church of San Pedro were cleaned and were restored.
