We've all seen old paintings in galleries and museums that have that yellow look to them. I always thought this was just old age, but what I didn't know is that sometimes it is just really ancient dust and grime.
Nowadays, there are highly trained people who not only know what the grime is, but also how to get rid of it to restore the painting to its former glory. Just take, for example, the folks at the Philip Mould Gallery who are incredibly talented restorers that specialize in the meticulous task of restoring pieces of art.
In this particular video, one of those specialists was working to unveil the condition of a Jacobethan portrait of an unknown woman that was painted around 1617. The video shows a goop like substance being spread on the painting and then the true beauty is revealed.
Watching as the varnish of dirt melts away before your eyes is truly incredible. I was captivated watching her beauty come through years of wear! Who else wants to see more?
