EwaGlos, which has been developed in eleven languages, highlights
the crucial role that professionally developed multilingual
vocabularies play in

international preservation campaigns.  The illustrated glossary
stresses the importance of a common language in the conservation
field, and the role that

international cooperation plays in creating this common terminology.
The core of the glossary comprises approximately 200 definitions of
terms frequently

used in specifications in the field of conservation-restoration of
wall paintings and architectural surfaces.  The preface of this book
introduces professionals, students and decision makers to complex
issues encountered in the development, and use, of such
terminologies

The book concludes with an extensive bibliography in this
specialised field.
