Abstract
Color photographs and slides fading in museums are described. Dyes fade in different ways:the change of relationship between original emulsion speed and stability, the effect of radiation on slides, and differences between back and front illumination. Desirable storage characteristics are discussed. The role of moisture is also considered.
