Care of paintings on ivory, metal and glass / [by Helen McKay and the Fine Arts Section].: NM95-57/10-14-2015E-PDF

"When we think of paintings, we generally think of works painted on canvas, wood panel, hardboard or rigid card. Many other materials, however, have been used as supports for paintings. Three in particular—ivory, metal and glass—will be discussed here. This Note briefly addresses some of the vulnerabilities and general recommendations for paintings on these three support materials"--Introd., p. 3.
