Abstract
Certain wood finishes and historic materials may be damaged by visible light as well as by ultraviolet radiation. It is necessary therefore to control light. The use of draperies, interior shutters and other traditional features as well as modern solar controlling devices such as automatic binds and tinted glass should be considered, and, where suitable, used regularly to protect historic furnishings. -- ICCROM
