Sarakinos, A., Lembessis A. (2019) Colour Holography for the documentation and dissemination of cultural heritage: OptoClones™ from four Museums in two countries. Invited paper (review) for Journal of Imaging 2019, Special Issue on “Holography, Interferometry and Infrared Thermography advances and applications in Cultural Heritage” (ISSN: 2313-433X).

Abstract:

True-color holograms, as they are the most advanced and realistic three-dimensional images obtainable with current technologies, can become valuable tools for the preservation, documentation and diffusion of cultural heritage. In this respect, the transportable Z3^RGB color holography system and the HoLoFoS^TM illuminant developed by the Hellenic Institute of Holography have been successfully utilized for the in-situ recording and displaying of OptoClones^TM (Denisyuk-type color holograms) in four museums and two countries. The holographic image of an OptoClone^TM is characterized by a wide angle of view, full parallax and perspective, good color rendition and ultra-realistic reproduction of the optical properties of the materials of an artefact. In this paper, we report on our accumulated expertise in on-site holographic documentation of museum artworks of various types, already from four museums of world caliber and reputation (Athens and Thessaloniki Byzantine, Fabergé Museum of St. Petersburg and Diamond Fund of Russia). In one case, a world’s first, the in-situ recorded OptoClones^TM have been subsequently displayed as part of the permanent exhibition of the Byzantine & Christian Museum of Athens in replacement of the original artifacts while on loan. On another occasion involving State Treasures from the Diamond Fund of Russia, the recorded OptoClones^TM exhibited inside the Moscow Kremlin were highly appraised by officials and international experts as well as the general public allowing reasonable optimism for the prospects of Display Holography for museums.
