The programme of the workshop was made up of lectures on theory, tutorials in identifying the various processes of colour and digital photographs, and practical testing of suitable and unsuitable restoring methods on a wide range of these materials. The instructor for the section on colour photographs was Sylvie Pénichon, a restorer from the Art Institute of Chicago, and the section devoted to digital prints was led by Martin Jürgens, a photograph restorer from the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The workshop was also a very good opportunity to maintain contacts with colleagues from other countries, and made possible the transfer of theoretical and practical experiences between the participants in the course and their instructors.
