Allegorical Engraving Innocence By Bervic After Leonor Mérimée 18th C Old Print

This engraving is approximately 250 years old.

Our restorer carefully cleaned it to remove the traces of time. The engraving had several tears in the white margins, as well as within the image itself. These tears have been carefully restored.

To strengthen the paper, which had become fragile over time, and to ensure its long-term preservation, the engraving was backed with a fine Japanese paper, using traditional conservation and restoration techniques. Once the engraving is mounted with a mat and framed, these restorations will become virtually imperceptible.

We invite you to examine the photographs carefully, as they form an integral part of the description and provide a clear indication of the condition of this engraving.
