How much does art restoration cost?
No two paintings are alike, even if they were painted by the same artist, and completed the same day. Where they were displayed and how they were treated are huge factors on their present condition. That is why there is no simple answer to that question.
Size, condition, age are some of the factors that increase the cost of conservation. They can be as low as $200, which is often the minimum charge, and as high or even higher than $100,000 for paintings of significant historic value.
Conservators fees are all over the map. They can be as low as $80 per hour or as high as $400.00 per hour. For a treatment on a 19th century 20x30 inch painting that can take 50 hours, you do the math!
