Conservation treatments  are divided into three categories here for informational purposes.

Cleanings involve the removal of dirt, soot, disintegrated and discolored varnishes, old restorations and overpaint.

Structural treatments remedy problems such as tears, cupping and flaking paint, and distortions to the picture plane including dents and buckling or rippling of the canvas.

Cleanings

Each treatment is as unique as the individual painting it addresses and requires an understanding of the materials and craftsmanship that went into its creation.
