Overseen by Conservator: Joyce Hill Stoner and Julianna Ly

Nineteenth century painting on glue-paste lined canvas with yellowed varnish, flaking, large losses, and heavy overpaint; required surface cleaning, consolidation, and removal of varnish; application of new varnish and inpainting are in progress
​
I assisted WUDPAC student Julianna Ly

she developed with the assistance of
conservator Joyce Hill Stoner. After
Julianna performed cleaning tests,
I helped to remove the varnish and
overpaint with a solvent mixture of
1:1:1 Shellsol: Acetone: Isopropanol.
