Does your artwork require conservation?

If you are wondering if your painting is too damaged to be restored, it is essential to understand that most damages — even significant ones — can be treated by professional conservators.

At Atelier CROMA, we are qualified to address a wide variety of issues.

  • Tears, cracks, warped or perforated canvases: Stabilised and restored using consolidation and reintegration techniques.
  • Loss of paint material: Scratches, paint lifting, or gaps are treated with precision to restore the artwork’s integrity.
  • Environmental damage: Humidity, light exposure, or yellowed varnish oxidation — addressed with tailored cleaning protocols, preceded by rigorous testing to ensure optimal results.
  • Stains and soiling: Surface dirt and unwanted deposits are carefully removed without altering original paint layers.

For an accurate assessment and personalised advice, do not hesitate to contact us or ask an estimate. Together, we can determine if conservation is possible and what methods will be most effective in bringing your artwork back to life.
