Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The illicit trade in art and other cultural objects now constitutes one of the most prevalent categories of international crime. Law-enforcement agencies have long recognized that documentation is critical to the protection and recovery of these objects. Standards were needed that would make it possible for information on stolen objects to move easily across electronic networks and, at the same time, that would be intelligible to law enforcement and art communities alike. Developed through the collaboration of museums, police and customs agencies, the art trade, the insurance industry, and appraisers of art and antiques, Object ID is an international standard that defines the minimal information needed to identify art, antiques, and antiquities. Introduction to Object ID summarizes the evolution of Object ID, explains its nine categories, and offers guidelines for using them. The book provides suggestions for writing descriptions of objects and includes a brief discussion of five additional categories that some institutions opt to employ. The second part of the book sets out guidelines for choosing viewpoints, selecting backgrounds, and positioning lighting when documenting cultural objects with photography. The Introduction to series acquaints professionals and students with the complex issues and technologies in the production, management, and dissemination of cultural heritage information resources.

This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of the Cesnola Collection of Antiquities From Cyprus To the Trustees of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the writer of this Handbook owes a large debt of gratitude, for the privilege of study so prolonged and intimate. His thanks are due no less to the Director of the Museum and to members of the Staff in every degree, for assistance of many kinds, ungrudgingly given; for the long labour of cleaning and rearranging the objects; and for the preparation of text and illustrations for the printer. Above all, in the Assistant Curator of Classical Antiquities, Miss Gisela M. A. Richter, he has had a colleague whose knowledge, judgment, and resourcefulness have been invaluable. Besides the general super vision of work in New York, in the intervals between the writer's visits to the Museum, and the laborious verification of references and measurements, Miss Richter has read the whole Handbook both in manuscript and in proof; and has made many valuable criticisms and suggestions in detail. By a fortunate coincidence, her own work on the Museum's collection of Bronzes and Glass was going on side by side with the preparation of this Handbook, and in essentials the arrangement of the Glass is hers, while that of the Bronzes owes much to her intimate acquaintance with the material.

Download or read book The Care and Handling of Art Objects written by Marjorie Shelley and published by Metropolitan Museum of Art. This book was released on 1987 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York houses one of the world's largest and most comprehensive collections of antiquities and works of art. Their preservation is a responsibility that involves everyone who serves the Museum and who has access to the collection. This handbook offers a practical guide to the ways in which different art objects should be handled and cared for, whether they are on display, in transit, or in storage; and it also explains some of the fundamental principles of conservation that underlie Museum practice. The first part of the book sets out guidelines for dealing with the entire spectrum of works in the Metropolitan Museum: paintings, drawings and prints, textiles, costumes, musical instruments, and three-dimensional objects, whether monumental sculpture or filigree jewelry. In the second part the emphasis is on matters and procedures that affect the collection in general, such as climate controls, light levels, and photography. Included at the end are a selected glossary of conservation terms, a short reading list, and space for the reader's own notes. Drawing on the professional experience of curators and conservators from many different departments, The Care and Handling of Art Objects has been put together primarily for those who work in the Metropolitan Museum. What it has to say, however, will be of great interest to others - private collectors large and small, museum visitors, and concerned members of the public [Publisher description]
