My painting is torn. How can I restore it? urgent. . . . . Waiting online

Now that I have encountered this situation, I will talk about how to repair a torn painting.

This kind of repair is different between the north and the south. The ancients called it "the north subsidizes the south."

Let me talk about our southern method first,

"sticking"

The so-called "sticking" can be simply understood as following the bad painting behind it. For the cracks, stick a piece of paper that is as similar as possible to the original painting.

The batter needs to be thin and even. Note that the paste should be applied as little as possible. It is best to only apply it to the cracks. The smaller the area, the better. When pasting, pay attention to how the fibers of the paper overlap when it is torn, and try to restore it as much as possible.

After it is completely dry, slowly tear off both sides of the paper line (note that it is both sides, not both sides), so that there are paper fibers on the edges and it feels fluffy. , people with relatively skilled skills can do it perfectly. If it is not illuminated by this bright light, it will be difficult to see the original cracks.

Let’s talk about the northern method of “toning”

This method of northerners can be said to be more cumbersome, but the effect is better than that of the south.

First of all, you need to prepare paper pulp, because this "repair" method basically uses paper pulp for processing.

You can make the paper pulp yourself. First tear the rice paper into pieces, soak as much as possible in water. When you want to use it, pick up the paper pulp and mix it with the paste. Don’t make too much paste. It’s too much. The repair marks are too obvious.

After these things are prepared, you can repair the broken painting.

First use tweezers to pull the hair on both sides of the torn crack, break its fibers, and then Lay the mounting board flat, sprinkle some water on it, smooth it with a mounting brush, align the cracks, and then use tweezers to align the paper pulp with the fibers of the original painting to the cracks. You need a certain amount of patience and slowly put them together. After finishing the painting, if necessary, you can put the glue around the picture on the wall and let it dry naturally before resting.

However, it is still recommended that the poster find a professional to repair the painting. . . This is a delicate job
