In this Spanish-language volume, 19 international authorities in
stained-glass conservation and related fields address the history,
aesthetics, and conservation of stained glass. The book presents
the results of an international seminar on the conservation of stained
glass, held in Spain in July 1994. Among the subjects discussed
are the weathering of medieval stained glass, its chemical structure,
the effects of corrosion, and techniques for analysis of this historic
material. Miguel Angel Corzo is the director of the Getty Conservation
Institute. Nieves Valentín is a researcher at the Instituto del
Patrimonio Histórico Español in Madrid.
