This is an authoritative and insightful survey of the evolving
field of photograph conservation. This volume is the first
publication to chronicle the emergence and systematic development
of photograph conservation as a profession. In 72 essential texts
from the 19th century to the present day, this anthology collects
key writings that have influenced both the philosophical and the
practical aspects of conserving photographs. The materials were
carefully selected by the editors along with an advisory board of
international experts and include a number - particularly the
lectures, memos, and letters - that have never been published
before. Many of the topics - safe environmental parameters, silver
image permanence, and proper treatment methods - have been debated
since the introduction of photography. By promoting an
understanding of these issues, this volume seeks to advance the
education of rising conservation professionals, inspire new
scholarship, and contribute to the field's ongoing evolution.
