To Museum-List

 

Does anyone know the range of foot candles that would be given off by an 18th century chamber fireplace? The historical society I work for does not have a light meter and we would really like to add some appropriate lighting to a program we are developing. I realize that it will depend on the size of the fireplace and room, but a general estimate would be fine. Additionally, if anyone knows approximately how many watts this would be, I would be very grateful. Thank you in advance.
