Synopsis:
A look at the GCI’s project (1992-1997) to systematically document and preserve the polychrome earthen panels (bas-reliefs) at the Royal Palace Museum in Benin, which depict battle scenes and allegorical symbols of the power of the kings of Dahomey. The project also provided local staff with training in conservation, photo documentation, and long-term care of the bas-reliefs.
