Overview
(Rep)
Use the Material_Technique field to record what materials were used to make the work. In our Luna database we treat this field as a free text field where a list of materials and their relationship to each other are represented in a single phrase. Take this information from the image source or other reputable sources that you come across while cataloging the work. Do not use the 'Material_Technique refid source' or 'Material_Technique refid' fields.
