The globes were presented with extensive damage to the both globes
with substantial restoration also needed to the stands.

	The damage is clearly visible with extensive loss of gesso, globe being held together by tape with stands also in a state of disrepair

	Then appication and repairs to the damaged gesso on the face of the globes
	Then the painstaking cleaning begins

Same area before and after initial cleaning
