Abstracts

The view of Bratislava, identified by the inscription Possonia in the upper part and Posonium Hungariae civita in the lower part, was, like all the other vedute, overlaid with an oval decorative element placed in the centre of the lunette. During the 1812 intervention designed by the architect Giuseppe del Rosso, the entire Vasari´s decoration including the view of Bratislava was changed considerably. The view of Bratislava was among the few vedute that were not transferred on fibreboard base during the intervention in the 20th century. The aim of the restoration uniting individual parts of the composition was to revitalise the view of Bratislava so that the original, considerably damaged parts could coexist with historically accepted reconstructions in a harmonious whole.
