The Szydłowiec Atelier has at its disposal 9 rooms of varying sizes with the floor area totalling to nearly 400 sqm. On this area are sited the following: the preservation atelier, photographic atelier with accompanying dark-room, X-ray and chemical laboratories, and two stores, one of which is housing objects and the other materials. Among the equipment units and modern specialized apparatus should be named electrically heated v a cuum- operated table for canvas-doubling, three microscopes, three cameras, two enlargers, colposcope, X-ray apparatus, photo-negative viewing device, two laboratory driers, three shade-free lamps, fume cupboard, racks for painting storage, moisture m ea suring equipment and the like.
