What’s In The Lab: Maps for exhibition

Washing paper is deeply satisfying.

In the lab today are some beautiful maps that will be  loaned to Duke University’s Nasher Museum for an exhibit in the fall.

While most of the maps are in good condition, some need conservation beforehand. Rachel has been doing some dry cleaning, and Grace is washing a few to remove old repairs and stains. Once the conservation is done, we will help to mount them so they can be matted and framed at the Nasher.
