HANDBOOK OF OIL PAINTING CONSERVATION

“The lack of a restoration book dealing with all phases of oil painting conservation has been lamented for some time. The publisher of the highly successful ‘Handbook of Paper Art Conservation’ has published an extremely useful book dealing with oil painting conservation in great detail. It encompasses 22 years of research, testing, and writing.” Adele F. Pruitt, Fine Art Conservator Chapters include: Examination, Cleaning, Varnish Removing, Lining, Mounting, Transfer, Filling, Touch-Up, Varnishing, Fungicides, Gilding, and Toxicity
