This is such a great idea and gives them practice with zooming and being precise as they color.

Art Restoration
When studying history we see artifacts in their current state, however I want students to visualize what the original looked like.
We are working on a unit on Egypt, and we were learning about Nefertiti, so I had the students do a little restoration. I took a photo from the Neues Museum website in Berlin (where the famous bust is located)
Then I had students load the photo into keynote and start restoring he statue. I only had them work on the crown, necklace, and eye. I don’t let them try restoring the face, only the eye.This was an almost completed project.

Cool concept Brian to “see artifacts as they might have been”. That’s a great challenge for students! And the close up drawing work to “restore” the artifact, really gets students in to understanding the design and art of the time. Love this!
