Asset Overview

The Chapel of Santísimo Cristo de la Misericordia, located at the ambulatory of the Cathedral of Sigüenza (Spain), dates from the end of the 15th century, although both the entrance gate and the altar that presides over the chapel are from the XVII century. Inside the chapel there is a polychrome wood carving of the Crucifixion of Christ dated at the end of the 16th century (around 1599). The recent restoration of this sculpture has revealed its artistic quality, especially the anatomical study. 3D model made in Reality Capture using 17 scan positions and 1467 images. Additional processing completed in Geomagic Wrap, Meshlab and Blender. This work is part of the collaboration agreement signed in 2020 between Junta de Comunidades de Castilla-La Mancha and Global Digital Heritage. We want to thank the Bishopric of Sigüenza-Guadalajara and the cathedral chapter, especially D. Jesús de las Heras, D. Miguel Ángel Ortega and D. Julián García, for the facilities and for the interest they have shown in the project.
