Professor Ioan Istudor,

in the field of conservation-restoration in Romania. In June 2007
e_conservation magazine interviewed this scientist who dedicated his
professional life to the study of works of art.
On his professional evolution, he marked important milestones on the history of conservation practice in his country and is still today highly regarded for his knowledge and experience. |

Ladakh is a semi-autonomous region
in the Indian Himalayas. For centuries an important crossroads of
Central Asian caravan trade, Ladakh’s culture, language and religion
have mainly come from Tibet.
Ladakh’s capital, Leh, preserves monuments from the 15th and 16th centuries, but was extended to become the permanent royal capital only in the early 17th century.
