Conservation project carried out in collaboration with Evergreene Architectural Arts in Philadelphia, PA.


Challenge

We had to rescue two caricatures by Maxfield Parrish that had suffered extensive damage due to a fire and numerous restoration attempts.


Technical Solution

It was an oil painting on plaster that needed to be cleaned, consolidated, filled in, and retouched.
