A person whose job is to protect, repair, or preserve something valuable like art, historical objects, or the environment.
Latin conservator 'one who preserves,' from conservare 'to keep safe.' The term entered English around the 14th century and applies to both personal guardians and professional preservationists.
Art conservators use cutting-edge chemistry and microscopy to reverse centuries of damage while keeping works authentic—it's like being a detective and a doctor combined!
