Nasothek. (2/2)
”Later, the restorations were regarded as hiding the "true" ancient work; everything should be authentic. The new parts were removed and often left a work which had been carved preparatory to restoration. The noses in marble and plaster all come from the Roman portraits in the Glyptotek [in Copenhagen].”

Nasothek. (1/2)
”The word nasothek means a collection of noses in analogy with discotheque, a collection of records. Until a hundred years ago, ancient marble sculptures, which had been found damaged and in pieces, were restored with new noses, arms and legs. In this way, they were more attractive to museums and collectors.” > 2/2

Today is #CPHHalf, which means my neighbourhood is encircled by runners. So I’m metroing to city centre to hear Gustav Piekut play Debussy/Schumann/Rachmaninov at #Glyptoteket, then attend Britten’s The Turning of the Screw at #kglteater 😎
