This kind of mending is different in the north and south. The ancients called it "northern patch and southern patch".
Let's talk about our southern methods first.
"Paste"
The so-called "paste" can be simply understood as sticking a piece of paper the same as the original painting along the crack behind the rotten painting.
It needs to be thin and even beaten. Pay attention to paste as little as possible, and it is best to only crack. The smaller the area, the better. When pasting, it should be noted that when the paper is torn, its fibers overlap up and down, and it should be restored as much as possible.
When it is completely dry, slowly tear off both sides of the paper thread (note that it is both sides, not both sides), so that there are paper fibers on its edge, which feels like Mao Mao's. In this way, skilled people can do it perfectly. Without such strong light, it is difficult to see the original cracks.
Let's talk about the "compensation" method in the north.
This method of northerners can be said to be cumbersome, but the effect is better than that of the south.
First of all, prepare pulp, because this "replenishment" method is basically treated with pulp.
Pulp can be made by yourself. First, tear up the rice paper and soak it in water as much as possible. Pick it up and mix it with the paste when necessary. Don't paste too much. Too many repair marks are too obvious.
When these things are ready, you can repair the broken painting.
First, use tweezers to brush off his fibers on both sides of the tear, and then grind them flat on the mounting board. You can sprinkle some water, calm them down with a brush and align the cracks. Then, the fibers of the original painting are spliced on the pulp with tweezers facing the cracks. You need to have some patience and finish it slowly. If necessary, you can walk around the screen and let it dry naturally and have a rest.
However, it is recommended that the landlord find a professional painter. . . This is a delicate job.
