The collection of paintings and calligraphy requires special attention to ensure that their artistic and historical value is not compromised. Here are some basic ways to collect:
1. **Environmental control**: Calligraphy and painting should be stored in a constant temperature and humidity environment, with an ideal humidity of 50%-60% and a temperature of 18-22°C. Avoid direct sunlight and excessive temperature and humidity fluctuations, as this may cause fading and distortion of the calligraphy and painting.
2. **Dust and insect proof**: Calligraphy and painting should be free of dust and insect pests. You can use insect repellent and dust cloths, or store your paintings and calligraphy in a sealed, transparent plastic bag. Avoid using pesticides on calligraphy and paintings, as this may damage them.
3. **Correct storage**: Paintings and calligraphy should be hung flat or vertically to avoid curling or folding to prevent deformation or creases. If curling is required, you should use cork shafts and moisture-proof paper, roll them gently, and replace the scrolls regularly to prevent the calligraphy and painting from generating pressure in the fixed position.
4. **Regular inspection and maintenance**: Regularly check the condition of the calligraphy and painting, and if any damage or fading is found, you should immediately ask a professional restorer to repair it. At the same time, regularly change insect repellent and dustproof cloth to keep calligraphy and painting clean.
5. **Professional Packaging**: When handling or transporting calligraphy and paintings, professional packaging materials such as shockproof foam, moisture-proof paper, insect repellents, etc., should be used to prevent calligraphy and painting from being damaged during handling.
6. **Avoid touching**: Avoid touching calligraphy and painting directly with your hands, as the grease and sweat on your hands may damage calligraphy and painting. If touch is required, clean cotton gloves should be worn first.
7. **Professional restoration**: If the painting and calligraphy are damaged, you should find a professional painting and calligraphy restorer to repair it, and do not try to repair it yourself, so as not to cause greater damage.
8. **Insurance**: For high-value paintings and calligraphy, you should purchase corresponding insurance in case of accidental losses.
9. **Record**: For each piece of calligraphy and painting, there should be a detailed record, including the author, creation time, size, material, time and place of purchase or collection, historical value and artistic value, etc., so as to facilitate management and research.
