Mistlining of paintings


After testing we made up our findings and conclusions, resulting in lining two paintings using different lining canvas. The first lining we used a fine linen canvas, and the second painting was lined with a thin polyester fibre tissue. Both results were satisfying. Unfortunately it was Maggie (Margaret Barcovic) last day of her internship. Good luck back home in the USA Maggie!

Experimenting with Mist-lining


Maggie and Marjan tested an alternative for lining damaged canvases called "Mist-lining". This picture shows our low-pressure vacuum set-up. We tested different types of damaged and prepared textiles (colored strips in the photo) on a variety of lining canvases. Mist-lining is a great option--it was a very interesting and successful experiment!
