Preservation of wallpaper as a part of interiors Japanese Funori algae 359 are used to work locally with fine brushes on areas of runny pigments. Although the Funori is applied on a paper in generous quantities, when it dries its bulk is not apparent and appears matte. 360 Although several of the consolidants are water-soluble, they can be used for treatments of wallpaper with cold or slightly warm water. 4.2.9. Facing Facing is a temporary treatment used to consolidate a printed layer, as well as a fragile paper base. It is widely used by wallpainting and easel-painting conservators. The use of this technique for wallpapers raises interesting ethical questions and highlights the contrasting attitudes of fine art and archival paper conservators. 361 In many instances, wallpapers are salvaged during redecoration, refurbishment or even demolition. Severe damage caused during their removal often leads to the use of more radical and interventionist conservation treatments. There are several positive properties of facing. Besides strengthening and supporting heavily damaged fragmented papers, it consolidates flaky paint until further treatments. (Fig. 88) Facing is particularly useful for in situ projects and oversized wallpapers. It can be used successfully when dismounting a wallpaper or separating a layered section of several over-sized wallpapers. Additionally, facing allows fragile and fragmented papers to be separated, washed and lined. After washing and lining, facing paper is removed by spraying the recto side of the wallpaper with distilled water. It is then removed carefully piece by piece, being careful to prevent any further damage. Facing includes the adhesion of a support to the printed surface of a wallpaper, either locally or overall. (Fig. 89) A thin tissue with a good wet strength is usually used as a support; it should absorb and transmit water well without excessive shrink- 359 Françoise Michel et al., “Funori, ein japanisches Festigungsmittel für matte Malerei”, accessed December 8, 2012, http://www.empa.ch/plugin/template/empa/*/20447. 360 Debra Evans, “Funori: A Short Description, Recipe and Source” in JAIC Online (1984), accessed December 8, 2012, http://cool.conservation-us.org/coolaic/sg/bpg/annual/v03/ bp03-05.html. 361 Collier, “Wallpaper – In and Out of Context”, 56. 190
