We’re pleased to announce the digital preservation of the Saint John Nepomuk sculpture, now available to explore in interactive 3D form.

Captured using the Artec Leo 3D scanner alongside Canon EOS R5 Mark II photography, and processed in Artec Studio Professional, this detailed digital model ensures the faithful preservation of every feature and texture of this Baroque masterpiece.

Behind the Process

Combining structured light scanning with high-resolution photographic imaging, our team documented the sculpture’s complex geometry and delicate surface details. The data was then refined in Artec Studio Professional to achieve accurate textures and a lifelike visual result.

Originally part of the monument of St John of Nepomuk (c. 1737), which once stood in Klagenfurt’s main square, the sculpture is among the few surviving works after the monument’s removal in 1874 and is now preserved at the cathedral.
