With the arrival of the Photographic process in the 1800's the need for photographic
restorers soon became apparent. Here at the PA Art Conservatory we provide a variety
of restorative processes such as removal from acidic surfaces, cleaning, hole and tear
mending, paper reconstruction, and pigment reapplication all of which are undetectable
upon completion. Our Artists are trained to work with photographs from any era; the goal
is not to change the original photograph but to instead increase its longetivity and
return the photograph to its original state. Unlike other restorers our gallery works on
the original photograph, and then returns the original photograph fully restored to our
clients, but if the client would prefer it they can request a digital restoration. Our
restorers are experts in their field, and so are well versed in the variety of photography
as well as the materials and restorative solutions.
