The palace rooms used to be decorated with numerous Assyrian reliefs. Luckily, digital pictures of the site are available thanks to an Italian expedition in 2002. The goal of this research is to physically reproduce the destroyed reliefs using this photo database. First photogrammetry was used to rebuildthe global dimensions of the reliefs. The details are reconstructed by fusing a highly detailed depth map retrieved with Shape from Luminance (SFL), together with a coarser Artificial Reconstruction. The fused reconstruction was evaluated with the eigenvalues of the Hessian. The eigenvalues give an intuitive measure about the shapes of the reliefs. The RMSE of the results improve up to 44.4% compared to the usage of an intensity (grey) image. The final 3D models are used to produce full size reproductions with 3D printing and CNC milling.
