Description: Ideea acestei cărţi a plecat de la restaurarea unui ansamblu mural practic necunoscut, cel din bolniţa Mănăstirii Brâncoveni, din judeţul Olt. Dar, cum se întâmplă adesea, o realitate nou pusă în valoare trimite la altele, iar cercetarea descoperă că punctul de pornire este, de fapt, o verigă dintr-un lanţ de monumente, laice şi religioase, a căror istorie coboară în timp cel puţin până în secolul al XV-lea şi se continuă până în zilele noastr ... Prin restaurarea picturilor murale de la bolniţa Mănăstirii Brâncoveni s-a urmărit recuperarea mesajului artistic autentic al unei epoci cu totul remarcabile.-Autorii

The idea of this book started from the restoration of a practically unknown mural ensemble, the one from the hospital of Brâncoveni Monastery, from Olt County. But, as is often the case, a newly valued reality leads to others, and research reveals that the starting point is, in fact, a link in a chain of monuments, secular and religious, whose history goes back in time at least. until the 15th century and continues to this day ... By restoring the murals from the hospital of the Brâncoveni Monastery, the aim was to recover the authentic artistic message of a completely remarkable era--The Authors
