The Restoration of the Two statues from National Assembly

In 1989 Themis and Pallas, the two enormos statues that had adormed the façade of the National Aseembly building  in  Paris, since  1812, having  been  seriously damaged by the elements, were replaced by copies.  The urban community of the Cherbourg, having inherited the  originals, asked  Pierre Bataille to restoration  of  the statues which proved to be a real puzzle of reconstruction lasting 5 months.
