An absolutely wonderful book. A highly informative dissertation on the conservation and restoration of paintings. This visual book covers all the aspects of the art of restoring paintings, canvases, panels, varnishes, backgrounds, etc. Detailed chapters include types of damage ( blanching, craquelure, fallout, separation, fissures, infestations etc.) their analysis, and most intiguingly the various methods of repair.. Full of before/after projects, macro photos, and extraordinary procedures. There is a whole chapter on the formation of various wood, its structure, composition, and properties. The 'paint layer' chapter is unbelievable. Oh sure there are whole masters programs and detailed technical journals relating to the art of restoring art.but if you are into the world of art you will not be disappointed with this book.
