Fresco Work at Mission Concepción

Fresco Work at Mission Concepción

Pictured is a corner of the convento at Mission Concepción. One can see the red, yellow, and blue lines of fresco work. These colors were applied to wet lime plaster, and as the plaster hardened back into limestone, the colors softened into permanency.
