This treatment was challenging. The paper separated into segments along the crease lines when washing. Due to the severe creasing I did a Dacron lining (Dacron material attached to Plexi, lining attached to Dacron material, poster attached to lining) to prevent the paper from moving while drying. The poster was so big I had to work on it half at a time, then join the halves together at the end. But it is much improved!

Now you see it...now you don't.

I actually had to leave the foxing in the green bushes as treatment was stripping the watercolour paint. But once the sky was clear of the foxing I find the foxing in the bushes isn't really that noticeable.
