Abstract
Restoration distorts the integral message of the original object. During compensation of losses in pictures several methods are used -- flush retouch, hatching etc. Large losses cannot be reconstructed. Compensation is always dangerous, as a different personality adds something to the original message. See also 16-194. -- AATA
