Indian Hill Frame Exhibit

During 2011, Sue was invited to speak about period frames and her work as a gilding conservator. The resulting presentation: Period Frames: History, Materials & Conservation was given to the docents at The Currier Museum of American Art, Manchester, New Hampshire and then the Springfield Museums, Springfield, MA. The talk covers a brief history of frame styles, the basics on the art of gilding, how to distinguish between different gilded surfaces and the process of gilding conservation including examples from a variety of projects.

She will be giving this same presentation on Friday, February 10th at 7:30 pm as part of the Warner Free Lecture Series at Volunteers Hall, Harvard Public Library, Harvard, MA. You are invited to attend.
