Gem Skulp02 Restaurierung

Throughout history, painters have always used a wide variety of substrates and painting materials for their works. Our skilled specialists conserve paintings on canvas, painted wooden sculptures and wooden panels, as well as paintings on parchment and paper. Given the different ageing processes, it is precisely these diverse combinations of materials that sometimes lead to complex types of damage. We are therefore continuously developing suitable conservation and restoration methods as well as appropriate storage guidelines.
