Looks at the restoration of a collection of plaster casts that was rediscovered by the Queens Museum in 1975, after they had been placed in storage around 1938. Explains how these casts, which were molded from masters' creations, were historically used as representative models for art students. Museum conservator Neal Martz describes the restorative process. - Subject Terms:
