What real museum objects can teach us about the influence of climate conditions

The Climate4Wood research project will start in December 2012. Its aim is to provide guidelines for a more sustainable museum climate. Part of this project will be a museum study, to develop a better understanding of the influence of climate on decorated wooden panels. In anticipation of the start of the project, observations on furniture in the Rijksmuseum and Castle Amerongen are discussed to give direction to the museum study.
