• Reduced Oxygen Environments
– Analysis of plastics – Design of enclosures – Assessment of monitors – Effectiveness – Use
Imaging in Conservation
• Blaschka Glass Models • Lay over conservation
Complex Structures
• Complex Structure • Heavily restored • Value
– Morphology – ADNA
Imaging
• Digitization and analysis • Macro level
– Digital photography – Surface Scanning – Computer Aided
Complex Conservation Projects
Natural History Museum, London
Natural Materials
• Natural History Museum holds around 70 million specimens
• Natural origin or artefacts derived from a natural origin
Tomography (CT) – Non-invasive analysis
• Raman • EDX
Analysis in Conservation
• Papyrus
– oxidation and efflorescence
– Preservation and access
Composition, Imaging and analysis Conservation
Challenges
• Collections support the research of the museum
• Any interventive process therefore will reduce or change the value of the object
• Collections are held in an environment that reduces rates of deterioration and maximize data
Lace and Links
• Natural Materials
– Linen (flax plant, Linum usitatissimum), Silk (protein fibre) , Cotton (bolls Gossypium barbadense
– Metals, human hair, natural history materials
The Natural History Museum: Natural History collections, their conservation and interpretation
