TECHNICAL BULLETINS
Technical Bulletins are written by our staff conservators, focusing on a topic of importance to museum professionals and others working with cultural objects.
The articles present research or observations over multidisciplines pertaining to conservation techniques, preservation, and artists materials, practices and techniques. This serves as a resource for conservators, conservation scientists, art historians, collectors and curators.
