Reversing the deleterious effects of time, the environment, and improper handling is a key component of the Lowy service. Combining traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technologyfrom infrared and x-ray analysis to advanced cleaning, lining and inpaintingwe can correct many of the signs of aging or abuse. Most repairs are invisible to the naked eye, and all of Lowy's conservation and restoration techniques are reversible to preserve the historical integrity of the art.
 

Oil paintings on canvas or panels can be cleaned, structurally consolidated, inpainted and given a new protective coating of varnish. Canvases can be re-stretched or relined as necessary by our own expert conservators. Condition reports and documentary photography including x-ray, infrared and ultra-violet are also available.

Services include removal from acid backings, cleaning, de-acidification, cleaning, mending and lining.

Lowy offers museum-quality archival services, including museum hinging, acid-free matting and UV filtering glass.
