Description
Abstract:Summaries. A method of dry-repair is described designed to reinforce weakened or detached frames and edges of Islamic illuminated book leaves. The technique aims to give transparency, stability, flexibility and strength without undue bulking. Also described is a process for tinting, dyeing and coating with a heat-set adhesive various repair papers to blend with the original manuscript leaves.
