Restorative art in embalming originated in ancient Egypt, where practitioners developed techniques to preserve the body for the afterlife. The Egyptians employed methods such as drying and wrapping the body in linen, along with the use of oils and resins. Over time, the practice evolved, and in the 19th century, the field of restorative art became more formalized with the advent of modern embalming techniques, particularly in the United States. This evolution allowed for more sophisticated methods of body restoration for viewing and burial.
