It's !

Today we're featuring "Personal Viewpoints: Thoughts about Paintings Conservation" https://gty.art/3TW4B73

The papers in this book, originally presented at a 2001 seminar co-organized by the GCI, the Getty Museum, and the Getty Research Institute, explore the values, assumptions, and goals that shape the work of paintings conservators. Six conservators, three curators, and a conservation scientist candidly reflect on the challenges in approaching specific works of art. Each conservator describes a successful conservation effort, as well as a project that, in retrospect, might have been approached differently. Their insights contribute to a thoughtful analysis of the ever-evolving art and science of paintings conservation.
