Everybody loves a big painting, in fact one of my professors once said that "big isn't better, it's just better." And he meant that even if the painting is banal and about something uninteresting like shoe laces, if it's big it commands attention and must be reckoned with.
Luckily this big painting isn't boring or banal, but it is big. And as any painting gets larger the complexity of a conservation does as well. From the duration any one procedure takes, to the equipment required to treat the painting and even little things like handling become obstacles that must be overcome.
Thus far most of the videos address smaller works that never face these challenges. I wanted to take the opportunity to show how a conservation changes as the scale does.

    I don’t perceive it as roasting. I reckon it’s more that the earlier conservational work has been made at a time where the modern day’s materials, techniques and technologies weren’t available or even thought up/invented. My guess is that the lead paint may even be a century old or so (but it’s just a guess).

    I love restoring things and using power tools to do it. This video was on my feed and I thought painting restoration?? Give me a break… So I watched a few minutes of it thinking big whoop, but the longer I watched it, the more I began to understand the intricacies of each and every step and the type of personality equipped to manage such a restoration. Your patience, your knowledge and your equipment, blew my mind. Never did I think I would make it through 10 minutes let alone the full length of this video. Bravo my friend… Bravo!

    Sometimes I get emotional thinking about that original artist who, unknown to them, will have their work be so lovingly treated and whose original vision will be so faithfully followed. As a student training to be a research scientist, part of my job someday will be to leave behind research and data for the next generation to build upon. I can only hope that my own legacy will be treated with such care, and watching Julian work on these paintings has influenced the respect with which I treat my predecessors in my own field. Both art and science are conversations that span centuries, and if you know how to listen, even long-gone masters can have a whole lot to say.

It was obvious that they'd never actually watched or listened to any of his videos because a lot of what they criticized were things that he explains in almost every video.
