The discovery of the decorative heritage of Bologna has often coincided with the restoration of the ceilings in question, demonstrating in this way the great privilege of restoration seen as a close dialogue with the artwork, absolutely unique and unrepeatable.
The survey conducted in the field showed the evolution of the bipolarity of the interior decorative evolution, typical of the second half of the sixteenth century in Bologna and characterized:
a) on the one hand, by the evident formal continuity between the distributions of the ceiling, punctuated by beams and joists and the rhythmic of the frescoed friezes painted on the walls,
b) on the other hand, by the close similarity between the scenes, often biblical, painted in the friezes, and the scenes, often allegorical painted on the ceilings.
