On season seven, episode two we learn about an industry at the intersection between science, art and history.

On this episode our podcast hosts Erin and Emily are joined by Caitlin Hartmann, a tapestry conservation intern at Hampton Court Palace of Historic Royal Palaces. We hear from her about her work in tapestry conservation as well as the science behind textile conservation in general, including a fun fact about why historic textiles often have a blue hue to them!

You can find Caitlin on Instagram @caitlinannatextiles.
