Zusammenfassung:This article focuses on the evidence revealed during the technical examination and conservation treatment of a plaster model of The Greek Slave used by stone carvers in Hiram Powers’s studio to produce finished marble copies. Observations focus on what both the internal "skeleton" and the exterior "skin" revealed during the conservation process that supports a history of the plaster model’s repeated use, as well as offers details about the role of intermediates in historical studio technique. Also presented is the use of 3-D scanning as a digital tool for art historical research in addition to its enabling the making of a 3-D "print" of the plaster model suitable for gallery display.
