| Abstract (English): |
This paper will discuss how modern interventions changed the image of stucco altarpieces and their original polychromies. These works of art form a consistent group whose presence can still be seen in the Alentejo (Portugal), built between the 16th and 20th centuries. Although its popularity in this region over the centuries cannot be overstated, this artistic heritage has been misunderstood in terms of constituent materials, artisanal construction techniques, and polychrome coatings. All of the mimetic potentials of these altarpieces were laid out in their colourful finishing which successfully imitated other materials, particularly marble. This visual image was irreversibly altered because of intensive whitewashing or modern repainting with synthetic materials. We will examine how local populations have reacted to this historical heritage through various examples, taking into account psychological, cultural, and even economic factors.

| Abstract (Spanish): |
Este artigo irá debater a forma como intervenções modernas têm vindo a alterar a imagem e a policromia original dos altares em stucco. Estas obras de arte constituem um grupo muito consistente construído entre os séculos XVI e XX e cuja presença ainda é visível no Alentejo (Portugal). Muito embora a sua popularidade, ao longo dos séculos, seja inegável, este património artístico foi incompreendido no que diz respeito aos seus materiais constituintes, técnicas de construção artesanais e revestimentos polícromos. De facto, todo o potencial mimético destes retábulos consistia nos seus acabamentos polícromos que imitavam, com bastante sucesso, outros materiais, especialmente o mármore. Devido a intensas caiações ou a repintes modernos, com materiais sintéticos, esta imagem visual foi irreversivelmente alterada. Através de vários exemplos e considerando fatores de ordem psicológica, cultural e económica, analisaremos a forma como as populações locais se têm relacionado com este património histórico.
