    It's rare that we truly know why an artist created a painting. Over the course of its life a painting history is often lost. We may have a final product but the impetus for its execution may never be understood. Even more rare is when that reason is painted on the front of the canvas as in the case with this Italian wedding portrait. But dating from 1450, is it truly what it portends? In order to answer that question we must first conserve the painting and then discover its mysteries.

    Yay is this the first time a customer has talked about their painting on a video? Hopefully we'll see him back for the unveiling!

    I will never not be impressed by Julian's smooth sponsor transitions.

    The face that Julian makes when the client describes how the paintings were treated😂and we finally see a client! Wasn't prepared for that

    It is so enjoyable that the owner talks about this painting with such love. Thank you so much for the added value.

    Hey, as a broke person with a fine arts collection, you don't need to be rich to be able to acquire things like this! You just have to know the right places to look, and young people are allowed to save their money to enjoy things they deeply appreciate, I also studied Art History and it's absolutely worth every penny. Huge respect for this young lad, would love to see anything else from his future collection!

    The world is a better place because of the young collector and Julian. Both to be commended for preserving our art history and culture.

    Can’t believe the owner of this painting is only nineteen years old. Great interview on how he came about the painting. As always, it is a treasure to see how you restore an impossible damage painting into it original state or close to the original state. Can wait to see the final product.

    Am I the only one who got excited, when he said 'thick layer of varnish' ... in anticipation of the cleaning and the original colors coming to life :D

    The expression of confused disbelief on Julian's face when he realises that there's no tacking edge what so ever 😂

    The original artist could never have imagined that his painting would be watched being restored by the equivalent of more than 1/50 of the population of Italy at the time of creation 600 years later as evening entertainment…

    The way he said “antiques dealers” made it sound like “antique stealers” and I was like 😳

    i did a little research on that coat of arms: the two nobles in the painting are Margherita d'Este (1411-1476, daughter of the marquess of Ferrara) and Galasso Pio II (son of the Lord of Carpi).

    Cutting the canvas off of the paint sounds like actual magic. It just feels like something that should be definitionally impossible

    Julian has really leveled up his art restoration class now that he's learned the create clones ability.

    mcgreggor talked about the painting as when you see a pet for adoption and you just cant resist to take them home. I hope it pays off🤞🏼this is pretty exciting

    Julian: “and that means scrapping. Lots, and lots of scraping”
