OUR FOCUS ON BELLE ARTE SITES AROUND THE WORLD

Frescoes by Giotto at the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua, Italy

With the help of Ario Ruprecht in Italy, Met One Instruments, Inc. has been focusing on the preservation of Italy's major art sites.  The frescoes by Giotto are subject to air pollution as the chapel doors are open to one of the main streets in Padua.  Although, recent restorations have been accomplished, this site continues to be monitored for preservation.  

We have monitored Marco Aurelio on Campidoglio in Rome, the Sistine Chapel at the Vatican, The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci in Milan. We have also monitored the Mongolian Caves in remote Mongolia and the pyramids in Egypt. Archaeological researchers use our instruments to make sure the correct maintenance of these valuable sites are put in place so future generations will be able to see and enjoy their historical existence and beauty.
