The art of oil painting has filled the spiritual culture of people all over the world, and more and more people have begun to collect oil paintings, as well as painting portrait oil paintings of themselves and their families. Although oil paintings can be kept for a long time and are not easily damaged, they also need maintenance during the collection process. If there are no reasonable maintenance measures, they may be accidentally damaged. In the process of collecting oil paintings, you should pay attention to the following 7 problems.
- Two layers of natural beeswax pre-dissolved in turpentine can be thinly coated on the back of the canvas, which can completely prevent damage caused by the immersion of humid air.
- Oil painting should avoid long-term direct sunlight, because ultraviolet rays are very destructive to colors, causing fading and discoloration.
- In oil painting, it is forbidden to put two pictures on each other. Avoid the temperature rising to make the picture stick, causing the paint to fall off and the picture to be damaged.
- When rolling theoil painting, make the canvas face inward and the picture outward, roll a layer of paper tube on the outside, and then wrap it with plastic cloth to prevent the painting from cracking.
- The room where oil paintings are stored should pay attention to ventilation and moisture-proof, and the room should maintain a certain temperature and humidity.
- If the oil painting hanging on the wall is dusty, you can gently wipe it with a slightly damp clean cloth.
- Generally, oil paintings can be preserved for two or three hundred years, but with the passage of time, some oil paintings may crack after a few decades. If you have a lot of collections, you can wrap the oil painting in a plastic sheet and put it in a wooden box to prevent hard injuries.
