The relevance of the topic covered in this article is due to the importance of preserving cultural heritage in the modern world, since many objects of material cultural heritage are destroyed as a result of aggressive environment, improper handling and storage. And, therefore, in order to preserve them, it is necessary to create special conditions for the storage of art monuments, as well as to perform their conservation and restoration in a timely manner. The study subject was O.K. Tatevosian’s still-life of 1958 that was made in the technique of oil painting. The purpose is to preserve and restore the 1958 O.K. Tatevosyan’s still-life. This article describes the conservation and restoration activities aimed at preserving the picturesque still-life of the 20th century by O.K. Tatevosyan. The complexity of these activities is due to the presence of a large number of surface contaminants, the main of which were dangerous and extremely difficult to remove fly deposits, as well as the thinness of the author’s layer.
