WCCFA
provides museum-standards conservation examination and treatment for
works of art. Each conservation treatment is thoroughly documented with
photographs and written reports, and is carried out using only approved
museum-standards materials and methods.
Philosophy
Conservation of historic and artistic works is
a pursuit requiring extensive training and special aptitudes. It places
in the hands of the conservator cultural holdings, which are of great
value and historical significance. To be worthy of this special trust
requires a high sense of moral responsibility. The conservator has obligations
not only to the historic and artistic works with which he is entrusted,
but also to the owners or custodians, to his colleagues and trainees,
to his profession, to the public and to posterity.
