Work description
Conservation of eight major pieces of artwork of national significance.
* All require examination, but required work could include: • Onsite visit to inspect artwork (Essential prior to quotes being submitted)
• Surface cleaning to remove ingrained dirt. • Removal of patchy varnish and poor-quality retouching • Removal of heavy, glossy varnish. • Make good old repair works. • Removal of leaching and treatment in those areas, followed by retouching previous damage as necessary. • May require varnishing with a non-yellowing varnish for future protection. • Each frame will require cleaning. • Some frames will require replacement of lost plaster work. • Canvas retention.
