This exercise trains investigation skills and puts theoretical notions into practice by analysing and observing heritage objects in museum settings. The students make value judgments.

Exercise (individual or group)

  1. Investigate a heritage piece from the museum collection you are visiting, such as a piece of painted Saxon furniture, and analyse it in terms of:
    • materials used,
    • the size and shape of the object,
    • the sets,
    • chromatic features.
  2. Do you consider that the object under consideration has heritage value? If yes, please give reasons.
  3. Do you think it is worth preserving? Why?
