Synopsis:

Guides professional photographers, curators and serious amateurs through the steps necessary to prolong the life of a photograph. Emphasis is placed on matting, framing, and storing these prints, as well as the care and preservation of negatives, colour and historic prints. It is illustrated with pictures and drawings that depict the steps and procedures discussed and offers readers graphic examples of poorly preserved and restored prints. In addition to the material covered in the first edition, this book offers a greater depth of colour preservation and the processing of negatives.
