UV radiation is the most damaging component of light for artworks, as it can cause fading, discoloration, and embrittlement of materials.

IR radiation is the least harmful type of light for artworks, as it has the lowest energy and is less likely to cause damage.

UV filters are designed to block UV radiation from reaching the artwork, thereby preventing damage.

Acrylic is the most commonly used UV filter in art conservation due to its clarity, durability, and resistance to yellowing.

Light damage to artworks can manifest in a variety of ways, including fading, discoloration, cracking, and yellowing.

The recommended light level for displaying artworks is 50 lux, as higher light levels can increase the risk of light damage.

UV filters should be replaced every 10 years to ensure that they are still effective in blocking UV radiation.

The best way to store artworks to protect them from light damage is in a dark, cool, and dry place.

Mylar is not a type of UV filter, but rather a type of plastic film that is often used for packaging and other purposes.

UV radiation is the primary cause of fading in artworks, as it can break down the pigments and dyes used in paints and other materials.

IR radiation is most likely to cause embrittlement of materials in artworks, as it can cause the materials to become dry and brittle.

The recommended relative humidity for storing artworks is 40-50%, as higher or lower humidity levels can damage the artworks.

Warping is not a type of light damage to artworks, but rather a type of damage that can be caused by changes in temperature and humidity.

The best way to clean an artwork that has been damaged by light is to use a soft brush and a mild detergent, a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment, or a damp cloth.
