Despite the perception that artworks are timeless and unchanging, they are actually subject to biological attack from a variety of bacterial sources - from fungi to insects. This groundbreaking and richly illustrated volume, which publishes the proceedings of a conference held at The Metropolitan Museum in June of 2002, explores how the development of these bacteria can be arrested while preserving both the work of art and the health of the conservator.
