The Restoration of the Chapel of the Shroud in Turin, Interview by Kim Williams. Edited by Sandro Caparrini
Abstract. Guarini’s Chapel of the Shroud in Turin, a major monument of the Italian Baroque, was devastated by fire in 1997. Plans are now underway for its restoration.

In this interview with Mirella Macera, Paolo Napoli and Fernando Delmastro, coordinators of the restoration project, the nature of the damage caused by the fire, the steps taken thus far to stabilize the structure, and new discoveries about the Chapel as a result of the fire are examined.
