Antique Art Restoration
by Sierra Sparks on 01/31/23
The history of art restoration is one that spans many centuries and is driven by the mission to ensure famous works of art remain accessible. Michelangelo’s iconic Sistine Chapel frescoes were first restored as early as the 16th century due to water damage, and since, advances in technology have led to the development of increasingly safe and effective approaches to preserving and repairing a range of works. Art restoration is intended to preserve the integrity (and thus, value) of an original work of art. Many in need of repair, however, date back centuries, and the inevitable decay from time and climatic conditions can have a significant impact on their current value in the art market.
