The English Heritage conference Conserving the Painted Past continues an important tradition of international debate on the conservation of wall paintings, taking stock of current developments in the field, reviewing standards and practice and planning the way ahead. The papers included illustrate the variety of issues and approaches central to modern wall painting practice from a multidisciplinary perspective. These conference Postprints thus record the state of the profession at the threshold of the 21st century. xiii, 156 pages ; 30 cm. Slight shelf wear to edges, no inscriptions, tight and square binding, this copy with English Heritage label on inside front cover along with a tipped-in memorandum from the conservation department.

First Edition
Trade Paperback. Condition: Fine. First Edition. A fine copy. Tight binding, clean and unmarked text. // ' The papers collected in this volume are the fruits of the Desalination project - a European research project which involved representatives of the private sector, universities, industry, research centres and public authorities. This project examined the use of poultices to treat salt damage problems in porous objects (a widespread standard practice for at least three decades in cultural heritage conservation). However, as with many conservation interventions, while the poultice materials are (in large part) removable, the effects of this treatment are non-reversible. Topics include: The choice of one poultice material over another; Pre-treatment assessment of object and the salt deterioration; What substrate and/or salt analysis can/should be undertaken; Salts and their spatial distribution within objects; and The efficacy and functionality and potential dangers of typical poulticing methods on different material substrates.' -- publisher.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The papers contained in this volume examine the salt transport mechanisms between a salt laden substrate and a material applied to its surface; improved methods for assessing desalination treatments and the assessment of the working principle and efficiency of salt extraction poultice systems for use on wall surfaces in monumental buildings by using non-destructive analysis on different material substrates and under different environmental conditions; the results of laboratory tests to evaluate the workability and mechanical properties of fresh poultices; and the assessment of the moisture and ion transport mechanisms active during desalination in different poultice/substrate combinations, by means of nuclear magnetic resonance.
