| dc.description.abstract | How do museums design attractive and effective lighting while reducing the risk of damage to the objects in their care? This indispensable guide offers practical information for professionals making critical decisions about the display of museum collections. Beginning with an overview of light, color, and vision, Museum Lighting presents the latest science on visibility and deterioration and explores the impact of light on a range of objects from paintings, manuscripts, and photographs to textiles, leather, plastics, and more.David Saunders is an honorary research fellow at the British Museum, where he was keeper of conservation and scientific research until 2015. He was previously in the Scientific Department of the National Gallery, London. He is a fellow of the International Institute of Conservation and of the Society of Antiquaries of London. | |
