Q: >
>in the Jacquemart Andree Museum in Paris I have seen an ancient fresco which was transported from the original place to the museum by a special technique - as I was explained - special lacquer was apllied on the fresco, it absorbed the paint then it was peeled (I imagine) off the wall and apllied on a wall in the museum; the painting got extracted from the lacquer

>the thing is that the explanation was too fast, and this way said it seems like a science fiction
