these two drawings by a french artist named ingres are from the 19th century. ingres was a wonderful portrait painter, but he made pencil drawings of his subjects before he made the paintings. in this photograph of a drawing, this drawing, before treatment, you casee how yellow the paper got when light hit in order to get this discoloration off, but not to move or in any way reduce the pencil, we had tbe vcal in our treatme. the most interesting thing about this from your point of view might be that we had to use sunlight to take away the damage that light had done. we tk ese drawgs and ry carefully dampened them. we put them on a clean white blotter in a tray, and then we put them outdoors. and we stood with them in the driveway for about 4 hours, and the sunlight came and took away the damage that the sun had caused. we think it's because the sunlight, when it's in water, caes the molecules to vibrate. and the colored parts that the sun had made before shoot off of the vibrating molecule. and then we brought it back in the lab, and we washed it again very car
