Prevention
Once all the characteristics of the work have been identified with certainty, it is important to activate a preventive behaviour on it. The position, the external factors that can act negatively on it, air, light and dust, but also relative humidity and temperature variations: all this affects the state of conservation of the work. However, if you follow a few small precautions you can avoid a more invasive intervention on the work, which would decrease its value, risking further damage.
Prevention is to be understood as a series of control actions aimed at a good and lasting conservation of the work. Prevention presupposes an intervention that is not limited to the object, but widens its range of action to the surrounding space. Art. 29 of the Code of Cultural Heritage and Landscape says: “Prevention is understood as the complex of activities suitable to limit the risk situations connected to the cultural heritage as a whole”.
