Abstract
- When mounting large-sized objects on paper, there is often a risk that the work, if handled carelessly, touches the glass. This can result in damage to the paint layer. One way to prevent this is to mount with cross-shaped hinges made of Japanese paper attached to the centre of the verso of the object. In order to minimize tensions in the paper, the wheat starch paste can be applied by means of a stencilled-dot method or the 'micro-dot' method. After mounting the work on a backing board by means of the presented hinges the object is enclosed dustproof. The so-called package consists of glazing, spacer, mat, work of art and backboard. The additional framing is done with a mounting frame which gives particularly large-format framing sufficient stability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
