This second generation family business has recently moved to a new purpose built studio to allow further development in picture and frame conservation....specialising in oversize items. Everett Fine Art have specialised in the restoration of oil paintings for over fifty years and undertaken an extraordinary variety and complexity of work including:-
relining (conserving damaged and old canvases)
c

leaning
retouching

over-sized canvases
collection hanging. This has enabled us to establish a team of highly skilled and accomplished restorers and conservators who work both at the new purpose built Studio and on site. We work for large institutions and small family collections and will give our firm undertaking that for any painting we restore we will use the sympathy and attention for which we have established our reputation. We provide a comprehensive picture framing and frame conservation service. From our large collection of antique molds suitable for frames for paintings, drawings and prints. We supply:

dealers
art agents
auctioneers
museums
and private collectors
with expertly researched framing. These are supported by a broad knowledge of framing history and craftsmen with traditional skills.

The history of the silhouette, even the name, is both quirky and rather fascinating occupying a brief history for our portraits

Reducing the need for conservation is possible but it’s probably more to do with your ambient temperature fluctuations and humidity ….consistency is always the best option

Assessing what to do and how to do it is always step 1 of any project…. In this case it’s not difficult and I know from experience that portraits like this will respond well without producing any problems…. I hope 🤞

Another step in the complete restoration and conservation of the 1810 portrait of the brother and sister

Thomas Chippendale had a profound effect on English styling in mid 18th century….this is just one of his little know examples

Any filthy old master with even 1% chance of being a gem is always one of the most exciting restoration journeys.

That tiny but critical skill of filling (or stopping) the paint losses prior to retouching. The restorers pigments differ from the original paint…it lacks bulk and the ground and preparation layers. These have to be replaced to keep the paint surface even.

Getting there…preparations completed and now to bond the old fragile and delicate original canvas onto its new supporting canvas…this traditional reversible glue should last for the next 200 years.

This is the method that I have practiced and perfected for our climate (and materials) and works best for me for the best results…other liners and conservators might disagree…I’d love to hear👂

This is one of those paintings that needs careful and correct diagnosis and treatment not to repeat and previous failing….it might, of course, not be in a previous treatment but in the conditions that it has hung…however, I suspect a combination of both in this case.
