Collection Conservation Talk

Illuminating Angels

What does a conservator do and what do they see when they examine an object? How does their work help to protect and preserve the collection? Join staff from the Gardner Museum’s Conservation Department, for a special series of informal conversations that will offer unique insights into materials, techniques, and the art and science of conservation.

April 13: Illuminating Angels

Ellen Promise, Gardner Museum Assistant Conservator, will discuss illumination techniques.
