Conference, London
February 11-12, 2005

A 2 day conference organised by the National Gallery and the
Courtauld Institute, will be held in London on 11th and 12th
February 2005. The meeting will examine early European trade and
trade routes, retail distribution and wholesale trade in painters'
materials. Where did painters buy their materials? Who prepared
them? What did they cost? Where did they come from and how? These
are some of the issues addressed by the speakers (conservators,
conservation scientists and historians).
