This 19th century painted photograph on glass had been shattered into 28 pieces and repaired with a now-yellowed, failing adhesive. CMAS was approached to try to take down the repair, improve on the alignment of the pieces and re-adhere with a conservation-grade adhesive, as well as restore a missing element on the gilded frame. Upgrading the 'frame package' to a conservation standard was also requested.
