| Summary |
"In this book, experts directly involved in the conservation of eleven important works of art made of different materials - including metals, wood, glass, ceramics and textiles - describe the often nerve-racking problems they faced, and the methods they used to overcome them. An introduction by Andrew Oddy, Keeper of Conservation in the British Museum, outlines the development of modern conservation techniques and current research, as well as discussing changing attitudes to conservation and restoration and the ethical questions involved". -Dust jacket |
