Sara Drew is an art conservator at Center Art Studio in New York City. She shows us how Center Art Studio's team restores a painting frame from the 19th century. This includes cleaning it, deconstructing the frame and gluing it back together, creating molds for the missing corners, sanding, applying gold leaf, and inpainting.
Center Art Studio is a fine art and object conservation practice that works with private collectors, corporations, and institutions. Established in 1919, we are one of the oldest and longest-running art conservation studios in New York City. We offer full conservation and restoration treatments as well as archival framing, custom display design, and consultation, and acquisition for collections.
