This first volume of the Getty Conservation Institute's "Readings
in Conservation" series presents a comprehensive collection of
texts on the conservation of art and architecture. Designed for
students of art history as well as conservation, the book consists
of 46 texts, many originally published in obscure or foreign
journals. The 30 art historians and scholars represented raise
questions such as when to restore, what to preserve and how to
maintain aesthetic character. Excerpts have been selected from the
following books and essays: John Ruskin "The Seven Lamps of
Architecture"; Bernard Berenson "Aesthetics and History in the
Visual Arts"; Clive Bell "The Aesthetic Hypothesis"; Cesare Brandi
"Theory of Restoration"; Kenneth Clark "Looking at Pictures"; Erwin
Panofsky "The History of Art as a Humanistic Discipline"; E.H.
Gombrich "Art and Illusion"; Marie Cl. Berducou "The Conservation
of Archaeology: and Paul Philipott "Restoration from the
Perspective of the Social Sciences".
