A minero-petrographic, chemical and microbiological analysis was carried out on the sculpture “Real Infante Carlo Tito di Borbone”, recently attributed to Giuseppe Sanmartino. A combination of microscopic, spectroscopic, chromatographic characterization along with the isolation of the microbial population was adopted to evaluate the conservation state of the sculpture. The stone composition was characterized and both biodeterioration and traces of previous restoration were detected.

A combination of microscopic, spectroscopic, chromatographic characterization along with the isolation of the microbial population was adopted to evaluate the conservation state of the sculpture.
