Beschreibung:
Joyce H. Townsend, FIIC, ACR, is series editor for the updated Science for Conservators series. She has been IIC Director of Publications for over ten years, and a conservation scientist for over four decades, more than three of them spent at Tate in London, UK, where she specialises in microscopical methods for the analysis of paint, and the interpretation of the techniques of British artists working in oil and watercolour, as well as microfading and X-ray fluorescence studies for works on paper. She has published widely for a range of audiences. Since 2019 she has been an honorary professor in the School of Culture and Creative Arts, University of Glasgow, UK.
This new edition provides a very basic introduction to the language of chemistry and to the scientific approach, taking readers through the elementary steps that will enable them to understand and investigate materials in scientific terms. It is essential reading for conservators and conservators-in-training.
