Usually, when paintings are this obscured its because of a very old oxydised varnish, here it's clearly only surface grime. Ergo, it really looks like it's been in a house where there was a fire, and what's so thick on the surface of the painting is soot.

She waited, as the realtors said the homeowner's daughter (Homeowner passed away, I think) was arranging for the place to be professionally cleaned/desmoked, and then went back to check again... all they did was paint over it! You could still smell it through the whole house. Also the kitchen was some completely insane red color scheme that just made you go a bit crosseyed looking at it.

@@Whisper555 i would say it's a combination cleaning/varnish removal as the varnish layer discolours and also traps grime.

The beginning when the green appeared my only thought was "woah" In the background when the light blue appeared i thought "woah" Again when the red lips when the red of the lips was shown the thought of "woah" filled my mind, wait let me remind and see that again kind of "woah" because I thought that was as good as it gets then the eye was revealed and it was beyond "woah" i was in awe was the concept of her eyes being blue even a thought until a moment ago? If there was magic in this craft then that was a prime example of such.

The reveal of blue eyes underneath the dirt really got me. True magic indeed!

I've got this weird thing where I can't fall asleep unless I listen to Would I Lie To You, a British panel show. I watched it so often that I can and often do, quote it in everyday life. I think it's because I have a bit of anxiety and the familiarity helps me relax. But I stumbled across this channel, and as someone who makes art, I think it's fascinating. At the same time, it is extremely peaceful and calming and helps me get to sleep. Also, I love the comment section, you guys are hilarious. So thank you

The whole video long I couldn't hold the feeling like I've seen the woman in this painting before. When he was about to reveal the face from all of the grime it finally hit me. This woman looks like Romy Schneider, the lead actress of the 1955 movie trilogy Sissi. These movies are very well known in Germany and Austria. A quick Google search of the painter revealed that he did actually live in Germany for a while after these movies came out. So it possible that the woman in the painting is said actress. Not stating this as a fact, I was just curious. Thanks for coming to my TED-Talk and greetings from Germany.

Julien: Wanna see a magic trick? Augustus Dunbier and the rest of us: 😮😯😲💫

One of my favorite reveals.. It's like he brought her back.. I can't help but think that this was a real person.. that at one point in time it was someone's wife.. mother.. I almost have that fleeting desire to know more about her.. who she was and how she spent her years living..

The cleaning is my favorite part of the whole process then the touch up. I really enjoyed this one.

To quote Terry Pratchett, "It doesn't stop being magic just because you know how it works."

The narration on this video, specifically the first 5 minutes or so, reminded me of a poem by Mary Oliver called the Ponds. It’s a longer one, so I won’t put all of it here, but I do want to share my favorite stanza, “Still what I want in my life is to be willing to be dazzled - to cast aside the weight of facts and maybe even to float a little above this difficult world”

This was beautiful. Your soft voice, the calming music and the way you cleaned the painting, by dividing it up and not just simply go from one side to another, and the way you left her eyes for last. Perfection. It was relaxing and my weird brain that loves organised cleaning just had an amazing experience. Thank you for calming my anxiety and depression for 18 minutes, it was wonderful.

that was the longest, most captivating ad ever.

"Everything in this world is magic, except to the magician."

The cleaning of her shirt alone almost brought me to tears. It’s breathtaking to see the original work underneath.

Am i the only one that would gladly watch every second of him real-time conservating any painting????

I've definitely been that kid that blows through an entire wing of paintings in a museum in like 20 minutes, because, well, they're just paintings of people and they don't even look that special. Especially with certain styles of art that are less realistic. I probably would have walked past this painting without much of a second thought. The revealing of this painting that had been obscured for who-knows-how-long makes it more poignant for me. It's more obvious how brilliant and vibrant the colors are, and it's more salient how deliberate each brushstroke is and how they make look mismatched and haphazard, but come together to make this beautiful portrait. tldr; I think museums should start printing high-resolution photographs of damaged or discolored paintings before restoration and hang them alongside the newly restored original. Its an important part of the painting's history, and provides some helpful background and context for people like me who sometimes struggle to "get" art.

Just because something isn't magic, it doesn't mean it's not magical

these are THE MOST relaxing videos ever. 3 minutes in and i’m asleep

I don’t think I’ve ever cried seeing what was beneath the dirt and varnish before. This is one of the most beautiful paintings I’ve ever seen. I’d give anything for a print of it. The way he captured her eyes is truly magical. Thank you.

Can we just admire the self-restraint it took to save the eyes for the very very last thing?! GAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH

Imagine how much detail we're missing in so many paintings because of yellowed varnish? How much emotion is lost behind years of grime? And how can that philosophy be applied to ourselves? There is complex majesty behind every person, every broken heart, that's waiting to be released. We just need to find the right tools to do so.
