Caption: Gen. Henry Knox Trail Marker NY-13 Schuylerville, NY
Additional Description: Recently many of the Knox Cannon Trail bronze plaques have received conservation work to restore the original sculptural detail that had been lost over time. Typically these plaques are restored using a technique developed in consultation with the National Park Service, which uses a system of air abrasive cleaning with a compound of pulverized walnut shells to attain the original finish and then they are sealed with a lacquer coating. In this photo the plaque is seen still wearing is greenish-blue patina in August 2007, before being restored.
