Preparing her diploma work the author relined on to the thin transparent steelon chiffon a portrait of an unknown Polish bishop preserved in the Diocesan Museum, Tarnów. Within her work connected with the relining on a thin fabric, unsuitable to be stretched in traditional manner using the canvas pins, the author was faced by the necessity to prepare a special stretcher. The stretcher which has been specially designed to this purpose allows to stretch the painting evenly by applying of slats inserted into the folded and stitched borders of the relining chiffon. According to the need the tension can be adjusted by loosening or tightening the nuts placed on the stretcher’s outer side. Since it was intended to make the whole stretching construction invisible, the stretcher has been covered with a slightly moulded frame that may be easily mounted or removed. The above-described device is a prototype whose design may be improved and simplified as result of further considerations.
