Read the text. Conservation involves the care and preservation of works of art, all of which are, over a period of time, subject to alteration and deterioration. This may be due to several factors: chemical, physical, and biological changes which occur through the inherent instability of the materials of an object, or result from faulty technique; accelerated decay as a result of poor environ- mental conditions, mishandling, or accidental damage and deliberate interven- tion by owners or restorers. Changes in the states of materials are largely in- evitable and irreversible but deterioration can be reduced by proper conserva- tion treatment. This, however, demands sound knowledge of the historic and artistic value of the object, as well as its chemical and physical structure. There is an increasing awareness that environmental factors are vitally im- portant in determining the lifespan of objects, and that much restoration work carried out in the past might have been avoided by careful handling, storage, and display. Organic materials including canvas, wood, paper, some pigments, and most media, are particularly sensitive to environmental changes. Exces- sively high or low levels of humidity and temperature, excessive light, and atmospheric pollution contribute to the deterioration of objects which is accel- erated by dramatic fluctuations in conditions. Museums and art galleries usu- ally attempt to maintain a stable atmosphere but conditions in private homes and historic houses are more difficult to regulate. If, despite all precautions, active restoration treatment becomes necessary it should only be undertaken by a skilled and experienced conservator working in the appropriate specialized field; irreparable damage can inadvertently be caused by enthusiastic amateur methods. Professional conservation preserves the authenticity of the object while avoiding unnecessary treatment. Methods 103 and materials are chosen for their stability and reversibility, and therefore will not hinder future conservation. жүктеу/скачать 0,79 Mb. Достарыңызбен бөлісу:
