ISBN: 9781904982036 - big pictures: problems and solutions for treating outsize paintings (16 resultados)

Hardcover. "This volume presents ten studies offering specific solutions to situations faced by conservators and curators when working with outsize paintings ranging from panoramas to unusually large portrait miniatures. Solutions for the problems presented by pictures too large for lorries, unable to fit through windows and doors and beyond the dimensions of any lining table are described in detail, discussing work in a range of formats, including friezes, theatre cloths and ceiling paintings. These projects demonstrate how large-scale works of art can be moved, treated, displayed and stored safely and efficiently and reveal the ingenuity, flexibility and audacity required when dealing with big pictures."

Oversize Hardback. Condición: Near Fine. Book is in excellent condition in nearly every respect: sraight, very tight, solid binding, with sharp corners, text/interior is clean and free of marking of any kind. Strangely, however, the "Big Pictures" portion of the title on the cover has been very neatly blacked out under a perfeclty cut rectangle of black paper, glued down. Odd. The only other flaw is the lower corner of the cover is chipped, otherwise very clean inside and out. A collection of articles by different authors on the subject. Articles include: Conservation of large miniatures on ivory; The conservation of large-format works of art on paper, The conservation and reinstatement of the Lonsdale Frieze, Mount Stuart, Installation of L'Escargot, by Henri Matisse, Cy Twombly: big pictures in a travelling retrospective, Touring Robert Rauschenberg's 32 ft long painting Barge Gillian McMillan, The problem of the seven foot door, Using Aluminium for a stretcher a practial assessment, The challenges of storing a collection of theatre backcloths, etc. 152 pages with photos, mechanical drawings, tables, charts.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Big pictures offer challenges far greater than an enlarged surface area and outsize dimensions, and this publication documents situations faced by both conservators and curators when working with paintings ranging in scale from unusually large portrait miniatures to panoramas. Solutions for the problems presented by pictures too large for lorries, unable to fit through windows and doors and beyond the dimensions of any lining table are described in detail, discussing work in a range of formats, including friezes, theatre cloths and ceiling paintings.
