  • About the Work

    Extensive folding of this newspaper print commemorating Abraham Lincoln’s nomination to the presidency had resulted in tears that were inadequately repaired with tape. After removing the tape and diminishing the appearance of the adhesive and liquid damage stains, our conservators filled and inpainted the areas of paper that had been lost over the years.
