The Conservator, The Apprentice, and The Problem Part 2 AD FREE

The arrival of a large, complicated and possibly important painting to the studio was a perfect opportunity to introduce a young conservation apprentice to the highs and lows of working with problematic paintings.

This is quite a "monster" that you have tamed. Great job! My question is, when you did the strips of washi-kozo, you put, what I assume was silicone acetate over the paper, then in the removal process, you said you removed the felt and weights. So, when did the acetate go out and the felt come in? Wouldn't the acetate retard the drying of the adhesive you used, and stick to the felt if you did not use the silicone acetate? Thanks.

Do you sometimes wonder what future conservators might think of your work? Especially if you do something irreversible like here with the seam, are you sometimes afraid that they might consider it unnecessary or even wrong, especially if they have newer techniques for things like that?
