Using routers, hand planes and scalpels the wood is painstakingly removed form the thin paper in order to facilitate the preservation of the paper via archival mounting to acid-free board. Employing archival and reversible materials and techniques, Baumgartner ensures that the piece is preserved and stable for generations to come. **** Note: I mistakenly refer to the painting as “The Assassination of Aristotle“ when in fact the poor chap about to part with his head is Archimedes. **** Official Baumgartner Merchandise
