Multi-analytical assessment of dry plate negative cleaning using non-invasive optical methods
Cleaning has long been recognised as one of the most delicate operations in conservation, given its irreversible and potentially invasive nature. Despite its relevance to the conservation of photographic documents, the cleaning of mould-contaminated gelatine glass-plate negatives remains poorly documented. This study aims to assess the outcomes of cleaning treatments applied to mould-contaminated dry plate negatives using non-invasive and non-con…
Setting up a methodology for restoring degraded daguerreotypes using UV lasers and atmospheric non-thermal plasma cleaning techniques
UV laser and plasma cleaning practices effectively remove tarnish from daguerreotypes. • Plasma cleaning is fast and selective but less effective for complex degradation layers. • The fs KrF excimer laser at 248 nm ensures safe and controlled cleaning. • A combined laser-wet method enhances cleaning efficiency. • Combining laser and plasma cleaning might optimize tarnish removal. Since the early years of the development of daguerreotypes – the fi…
The Colors of the Butterfly Wings: Non-Invasive Microanalytical Studies of Hand-Coloring Materials in 19th-Century Daguerreotypes
The public expected color from the early photographic images, yet, daguerreotypes—the first commercially available photographic process—failed to register the natural colors. Daguerreotypists developed several coloring methods to solve this inconvenience after 1840. Scientific analyses of the hand-colored daguerreotypes are limited, and the primary information sources available are manuals and patents. This study aims to contribute to the knowled…
