Dear friends We just started a restoration program of the local sundials were we face the following dilemma. On an historical sundial where the lines and the frame are still visible but with the old numbers completely disappeared (fresco paint over stucco), can we recover the functionality painting new numbers? (in different color and modern style in order to distinguish the addition). Or we should restore the sundial without numbers? As suggest the historical heritage responsible according to the principles of discrimination, reversibility, etc. Is there any precedent of this problem? And which was the final solution?
All the best from Majorca. Miguel A. G. Arrando
