摘要

大英博物馆的版画和绘画部收藏了大约200万幅版画,收藏和储存的方式多种多样。有一个持续的工作方案,以改善这些收藏品的组织和护理,近年来,许多印刷品已经重新安置。因为这是一个研究收藏,优先考虑的不是简单的安全存储,而是在处理和观看过程中的保护。还必须考虑到展览和借阅方案的需要、经济和时间因素以及非常有限的储存空间。为了满足所有这些要求,采用了许多常规方法,例如,在Solander盒中使用标准尺寸的支架,或者特别是近年来使用带有Melinex套筒的post粘合剂。这种方法在处理大量对象时很有用,但并不一定适用于所有情况。负责大量藏品的文物保护人员经常承受着完成大量工作的压力,但同时必须对他们遇到的每件物品或一组物品的特殊需求保持警觉和敏感,并在适当的情况下尝试提出新的更好的解决方案。本文讨论了最近一些安置项目所涉及的考虑因素。它使用了一个涉及威廉·布莱克(William Blake)的一些插图书的最新例子,来说明一种方法,在这种方法中,常规方法(在这种情况下使用邮寄活页夹)已经被调整为对一组特定对象的需求提供更有同情心的反应。

Rehousing of print collections at The British Museum—the William Blake post binder project and other recent approaches
Summary The Department of Prints and Drawings at The British Museum has a very large collection of around two million prints, housed and stored in a variety of ways. There is a continuous programme of work to improve the organization and care of this collection and, in recent years, many prints have been rehoused. Because it is a study collection, the priority is not simply safe storage, but protection during handling and viewing. Consideration must also be given to the demands of exhibition and loan programmes, to economic and time factors and to storage space, which is very limited. To satisfy all these requirements a number of routine approaches have been adopted, utilizing, for example, standard-sized mounts in Solander boxes or—especially in recent years—post binders with Melinex sleeves. Such methods are useful when dealing with large numbers of objects but are not necessarily ideal in every case. Conservators responsible for big collections are often under pressure to complete large quantities of work, but must at the same time maintain an alertness and sensitivity to the particular needs of each object or group of objects they encounter and try, where appropriate, to come up with new and better solutions. This article discusses the considerations involved in some recent rehousing projects. It uses a current example involving some of William Blake's illuminated books, to illustrate one way in which a routine approach (in this case the use of post binders) has been adapted to provide a more sympathetic response to the needs of one particular group of objects.
