  • A Description of 19Th-Century American Gilded Picture Frames
    Figure 1. Plate 9 from Benjamin, A. (1827). The American Builder’s Companion. “A, cavetto, or hollow; B, cavetto and astragal; C, ovolo and fillet; D, ovolo and astragal; E, cymareversa, or ogee; F, cymareversa and bead; G, astragal; H, bead; I, cimarecta; K, L, and M, are scoties of different projections and curves; N, O, P, are quirk ogees.” 2006 WAG Postprints—Providence, Rhode Island A Description of 19th-century American Gilded Picture Frames and an Outline of Their Modern Use and Conservation Hugh Glover, Conservator of Furniture and Wood Objects, Williamstown Art Conservation Center ABSTRacT Picture frames are a functional component of most art collections and they are subject to wear and tear as they fulfill their housing function for paintings. Damage to picture frames can occur during exhibitions, storage, and travel, and is caused by handling, hanging processes, adverse environments, neglect, and irreversible restorations. Picture frames are maintained by a variety of preservation specialists, and despite their ubiq- uity they have not become the domain of any one conservation discipline, and there is scant literature devoted to their preservation interests. This paper will focus on the analysis of 19th century American gilded picture frames, as well as preventive care, modern modifications, and restoration/conservation treatments. The talk is derived from the cumulative experience in treating frames at the Williamstown Art Conserva- tion Laboratory (WACC). The paper will address frame nomenclature and the development of popular styles and con- structions of the 19th century. It will outline ornament forms and materials, and give an overview of period gilding techniques.

Matted, hinged at upper edge. Printed in three full columns. A few old folds, Very Good. The Convention met in Bangor on July 9, 1828. After endorsing candidates for various State offices, the Convention issued and printed its 'Address... to the Electors of the Counties of Somerset and Penobscot', focusing on the upcoming presidential contest. Praising the incumbent, John Quincy Adams, the Address proclaims, "It is sufficient to say of him, that talents of the highest order are joined to uncommon attainments... We would ask you to turn from the rantings of demagogues, the bold fictions of an irresponsible press... Is not our country moving on peacefully and prosperously in the great march of improvement?" Adams's opponent, General Jackson, is unsuited for the presidency: "His character has been formed as a military chieftain... He is rash, headstrong, impetuous and unreflecting-- that he knows no law but his own will."

  • Glossary of Terms for Framing: Anti-Reflective Glass a Type of Coated Glass That Greatly Reduces Reflection Without Distorting the Art Behind It
    Glossary of Terms for Framing: Anti-Reflective Glass A type of coated glass that greatly reduces reflection without distorting the art behind it. Acid-Free Paper paper manufactured such that active acids are not included or are eliminated. A paper that has a neutral pH factor of 6.5 to 7.5 at the time of manufacture. Acid-free paper can be produced from virtually any cellulose fiber source (cotton, wood or others) if measures are taken during manufacturing to eliminate active acid from the pulp. No matter how acid-free a paper may be immediately after manufacture, over time chemicals from processing or pollutants from the air may lead to the formation of acid in the paper. The presence of an alkaline buffer will reduce or eliminate damaging effects of these acids for the duration of the buffer's effectiveness. The most common buffering additive is calcium carbonate. Some acidic materials are chemically neutralized with the addition of alkaline products; other materials are processed to remove the acid. Archival Components are framing materials such as mat board, mount board and acrylic that are designed to help preserve and protect the artwork from the damage and degradation caused by acids, light and pollution. This includes components made pH neutral or slightly alkaline to help with acidity, those with UV protection to help with light, and those with zeolites to help with pollution. Back Paper also known as a dust cover, is a liner paper adhered to the back of a frame. The back paper keeps dust and insects out of the frame package.
