This work aims to study the area of conservation and restoration of works of art, whose factors described throughout the work are associated with degradation and deterioration that can be caused by physical and environmental causes.

The conservator's main objective works as an evaluation model in assisting museological spaces and galleries with the implementation of viable technical solutions for their conservation and safeguarding of heritage. The restorer exercises his professional activity with specialization in the area of restoration of works of art, from painting, sacred art, frescoes, in multiple museum spaces, places of worship whether public or private, in addition to other spaces that enhance art. However, these professionals must be constantly updated in the face of new methods and techniques, new materials, with innovative resources, as well as the existence of an interdisciplinary approach and the ability to work specialized and organized in a group by the responsible conservators. This process results from the safety and preservation of collections with certain environmental conditions, request of experts and technical means of evaluation.
