Description

On season seven, episode two we learn about an industry at the intersection between science, art and
history.


On this episode our podcast hosts Erin and Emily are joined by Caitlin Hartmann, a tapestry conservation intern at Hampton Court Palace of Historic Royal Palaces. We hear from her about her work in tapestry conservation
as well as the science behind textile conservation in general, including a fun fact
about why historic textiles often have a blue hue to them!


You can find Caitlin on Instagram @caitlinannatextiles.
