Mora sample collection

Resource description

Paolo Emilio Mora (1921-1998) and Laura Sbordoni Mora (1923-2015) were remarkable figures in the field of cultural heritage conservation. 
In addition to their teaching and publication legacy, the Moras also gathered an important collection of material samples, held to this day at ICCROM headquarters in Rome. This collection comprises around 1200 material samples collected from heritage sites and monuments in at least 35 countries (wall paintings, ceramics, painted paper, textiles, stone, plaster, stucco, glass and more).
