High temperatures and humidity in enclosed storage or exhibition space may lead to excess moisture that warps the painting. [11] High Humidity reduces mechanical damage such as brittle paint but raises the risks of biological organisms, e.g. white efflorescence and green-to-black stains on a panel painting. [12]
Therefore, as with any similar object, data loggers are useful to monitor ambient conditions such as temperature and relative humidity, as well as thermohygrometric sensors for micro-climate monitoring for fresco paintings in indoor, outdoor or semi-confined environments. [6]
Increased heat from light creates paint soften: 68 °F ± 2° High temperature softens paint. low temperature causes brittle paint. Oil Paint [23] 40–45% or 45–45%: Expansion and contraction of painting, wood and fabric absorb moisture or shrink, paint cracks and flakes, or sags: max 200 lux: Fading or darkening of painting
"What you want to do is keep it at a reasonable temperature that’s not chilly.” The World Health Organization recommends indoor temperatures be set between 64 and 75 degrees for healthy people ...
For most people, figuring out the optimal indoor temperature in winter is a balancing act between comfort and keeping heating bills as low as possible. Everyone has their own preference for what ...
The average summer temperature is around 71°F. In winter, this falls just a touch to 70°F. Here’s a winter breakdown for thermostat settings across the U.S., according to the survey participants:
Paint is a material or mixture that, when applied to a solid material and allowed to dry, adds a film-like layer. As art, this is used to create an image or images known as a painting. Paint can be made in many colors and types. Most paints are either oil-based or water-based, and each has distinct characteristics.
The two common gilding processes are water gilding and oil gilding. The difference in the two processes is in adhesive coating base. Water gilding is the traditional, more difficult method, which must be cleaned using a mineral spirit or denatured alcohol. Oil gilding can be cleaned with a mild water-based soap solution. [12]
