Preventative Conservation

Damage can easily be prevented by intelligent storage solutions, developing and understanding the concepts of a disaster plan and the correct placing of artworks. Tremendous and irreversible damage occurs by paintings placed in direct sunlight or placed above radiators. Insitju in house consultancy can save expensive interventive treatment by a comprehensive condition report and survey on a collection or of a single item, identifying risks and averting disasters.

Picture

 Above, a good example of light damage on a victorian hand painted book plate, when the mount was removed the top section of the top flower has discoloured leaving only the red. The mount had protected the picture revealing its original red colour. 
This area around the picture was protected form sunlight, in this case it also illustrates how reds and blues are particularly susceptible to light damage, which can be avoided by using the correct glass and placing pictures out of bright sunlight rooms.
