Topic #13, Silk ship portrait To: Claudia Santamaria <santamaria...@gmail.com <mailto:santamaria...@gmail.com>> Subject: [Consdistlist] silk ship portrait
In the USA there are a number of maritime museums that have Willis painting/embroidery pieces in their collections. Mystic Seaport Museum in Connecticut has a number of them and over the years relied on a number of different conservators to treat them due to the varied materials that Willis used in their execution. Some have a canvas background which was painted using oils and others have fabric that has been embroidered along with the ship itself. Specific information on treatment and conservators used can be accessed by contacting the registrar, Nancy Seager (nancy.sea...@mysticseaport.org <mailto:nancy.sea...@mysticseaport.org>) Contact info; Nancy Seager, Registrar Mystic Seaport Museum 75 Greenmanville Ave. Mystic, CT 06355 1-860-572-0711 ****** Unsubscribe by sending a message to consdistlist-le...@cool.conservation-us.org Archives through August 2016 at http://cool.conservation-us.org/byform/mailing-lists/cdl/ Archives from September 2016 onward at https://www.mail-archive.com/consdistlist@cool.conservation-us.org/
