This thesis studies the restoration and preservation of Works of Art, with focus on the volume 112 from the Bibliotheca do Povo e das Escolas collection, entitled Restauração de Quadros e Gravuras, which was written by Manuel de Macedo and published in 1885. The collection aimed to compile curiosities and interests in studies, raising the interest in Reading. The volumes were written in ways that nonintelectuals could make use of its content. The volume selected for analysis shines a light on the value and preservation of monuments and precious artefacts found in the ancient art , as the author states in the Preface. This manual raises questions like Originality, forgery, conservation and restoration procedures, used materials, techniques of paintings and prints, that up to today are still subject of discussion, without cleared and difined standards. The research arises in the history of Science interface and technical studies on conservation and restoration in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, which marked the beginning of the practical and theoretical discussions on the preservation of historical heritage
