About this product

Product Information

This work is not a book about how to paint. Nor is it a book that chastises contemporary artists for using non-technical materials and techniques. Instead, the book presents artists with basic technical and conservation information in order that they can prepare their works of art with a high chance of surviving unchanged for future audiences. All too often it is the lack of basic structural information at the construction phase that results in artists producing works of art which incorporate features destined to cause early deterioration. The study also addresses the need for post-production care of works of art. The general acceptance of unnecessary damage to recently completed works of art is unfortunately widespread, with many artists accepting damage to their works as standard procedure. This should not be the case - a damaged work of art should be an exception rather than the norm. Though this work is intended primarily for artists, the information presented is also valuable for those responsible for the care of paintings in public collections, for corporate or private collectors and for individuals who own works of art. It provides artists and collectors clear low-cost options that could mean the difference between maintaining a work of art in original condition or sending it along the path of premature deterioation and conservation compromise.

    Excellent seller, I would recommend. Great communication, postage bag and packaging, item as expected as described. Fast delivery - much earlier than the expected dates. Much grateful. Hope you have a wonderful day.

    I recently brought a PNC from this store and the item arrived lightning-fast, was packaged with care, and exceeded my expectations in every way. The quality is top-notch, and the price was an unbeatable value. But what really impressed me was the seller's outstanding communication and customer service. They responded promptly to my questions, kept me updated on shipping, and went above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction. Cheers
