Abstract
There is nothing on which the preservation of an oil painting so much depends as on the quality of the support and ground. The various operations traditionally found most successful in preparing grounds are described, and further compared with data communicated by contemporary manufacturers of artists' canvas. See also AATA 18-1441.
