Art Restoration Contractors
Art restoration is a process that attempts to reinstate the work of art to some previous state that the restorer imagines was the ‘original’. By the late twentieth century the concept evolved into one that is more concerned with preserving the work of art for the future, and less with making it look pristine.
While conservation primarily involves cleaning and stabilization of the art work, restoration involves some irreversible change to the original material of the artwork with the goal of making it look good and last long; and is therefore a bit controversial.
