She gazes out at us with a piercing stare. Her mouth pursed just enough to force us to wonder to whom the intensity is directed; the viewer or the artist. She wears an imposing black ruffled collared dress, both delicate and commanding with a flash of fire red trim as if to say "do not stare, but notice me." And of course the bee earring just screams punk rock though we know that it's probably a reference to her hard working nature and piety.
Unfortunately this portrait is not without issue. A patch, some paint loss, errantly applied wax and lots of overpaint plague this painting. Luckily none of these issues are insurmountable and with a bit of attention and hard work we can make this portrait once again, bold and beautiful.

Note to self: buy bee earrings to achieve a punk rock aesthetic
Imagine not already owning bee earrings for the punk rock aesthetic
@@wearethechange128 ikr?
I want it too!
bee earing was from Minoan civilization in ancient Greece from Crete island .
@@panosveto5729 okay
The closest Julian ever got to murder was when he saw that patch covering the inscription and that the adhesive was non-reversible. (Without counting that painting he had to scrape for 84 years)
🤫 we don't talk about that dark time 😣😞
The shade... oh the shade!!!
it... was... polyurethane 💀⚰️🪦
The ship painting?
omg which one?! i have to see this hahaha
I work in the security field and it occurs to me that our jobs have something in common. If we do a good job, no-one will ever notice that we did anything.
Magical 💕
Good job 👏 😃
This is true of any goid job that are important to someone's comfort. The comfort of the soul is the gift of the artist. The work going into it must be effortless to those that experiene the result
Can we talk about how sassy and salty Baumgartner is? Like he will throw shade to the previous restoration throughout the whole process. I love it.
But he’s always so polite while doing it
Hahaha
this makes me a bit uncomforable in some ways, was the previous restoration a best effort with resources and knowledge of the time, much like hes using the best effort and knowledge of THIS time in history, could well be in 50 years someone is like "why the heck did this guy use this varnish we all now know that its not as stable as claimed and could degrade the canvass" or something like that..
the best knowledge, materials and practice of one time can be woeful in hindsight and today we may do things that the future will see as bad too
@@Simon-ho6lyyeah I don’t like how harsh he can be
@@Simon-ho6lynot true. most of the restoration methods this guy uses (and conservators in general) have been common practice for decades or even centuries. yes, our understanding of chemical properties and the aging process of certain materials has improved, but the techniques are the same. the previous restoration effort was pretty lazy and sloppy for any time period
Baumgartner: Well you're in my conservation studio so you're probably not doing that well
Me: *thinking that he was talking to me and not the painting* 👁️👄👁️
Girl same
Mood
it is a comfort show for me
Same🙄
Same..... he wasn’t wrong tho
I didn't realize he was talking to the painting in the beginning, I just assumed he knows that all of us flock here to get our dose of serotonin
Ah but you see... *whispers it’s both!*

I loved realizing that she has a beautiful matching bee headband when you removed the varnish
OH I didn't even notice! That is so cool~
i've watched this video a bunch of times and your comment is the first time i've noticed too!
Wow she does! Wonder did he notice it?
I remember up at Kenwood House when I was doing a summer job with English Heritage, and I noticed that one of the Rembrandt portraits, of this nominally Puritan Protestant woman, had a jewelled hair ornament. Rembrandt had painted this sweet sad lady with a tiny ornamentation, maybe just a tinge of comfort in a cold Puritan world.
I noticed the headband this time and have watched three times before
Julian: "I wouldnt want to do anything, like put a big patch-"
GO OFF I GUESS
The shade....😂
Find a man that treats you like Julian treats his tacking edges.
You're Goddamn Right!
There are so many inappropriate jokes to make...they're RIGHT there.
@@alex0589 Something about stretching, folding, and banging comes to mind.
@@GeirGunnarss Nailing too
Where's the lie, tho.
"How do you know the varnish was fully removed?"
Julian: "...I can SEE. With my EYES."
I would probably just use my tongue and taste the difference lol
Because he can see using xrays or black light. In this case only with his eyes. :)
Julian picked up his hammer and saw
@@tektuno he is not using black light non stop. He can see difference in texture and lighting. Varnish is shiny and paint is matte
@@badworld02 stop lol
When he got to the point where he was placing felt on the painting to protect it from the clips I suddenly got emotional thinking of the creator of these paintings. I don't know who they are or how old these paintings are but I'm sure a number of the artists are now dead, and I was thinking of that person watching from the beyond as he repairs their painting. Placing cloth on the surface to protect it just felt so reverent and holy and I can't imagine being the person seeing this stranger take such respectful.. almost loving care of something _they_ made. Something a person made with their own two hands, touching and putting themselves into every square in of that piece. It really is a beautiful thing.
great comment, OP. despite the fact that for the duration of the 1 or 2 minutes it'll take me to write this reply, I'll be thinking about what giraffes taste like in the context of your nickname. what's great about being respectful and loving is that it can be applied to ANYTHING and ANYONE... all can be treated as a piece of beautiful art. all it takes is making the decision to do it (easy) and keeping that behavior consistent (difficult).
❤️
As the back says it was painted in 1866, yes, I'm pretty sure the artist isn't alive anymore. 😝
Now you got me emotional dude, jesus 😭
No to much going on in your life Huh? "You got emotional " Get out, and live life and THEN say that.
The most impressive thing about all of this is how he manages to hammer the tacks SO CLOSELY to his finger without hurting himself.
In a previous video he said that he hammers his own thumb all the time, he probably just cuts it out of the videos
"advanced trigonometry"
_folds paper_
me: truly a master of his craft
I'm sure it''ll be on next weeks exam.
oh no this reminded me of school oh god-
I feel like Einstein now!
I laughed so hard at that comment 😆
Julian: *talking*
The varnish brush: “SWISH SWOOSH SSSHHSHHSHSHSHSZHHZHZHZHH”
Came here to say the same
Oh man exactly
Such a disrespectful brush
Kinda whant to hear him beat the devil out of
"the patch covers the inscription which is a big no-no"
me, knowing nothing about conservation: THEY DID WHAT? OH HELL NO
I love that Julian is getting more comfortable on camera and cracking jokes, someone get this man more clout he deserves it
Yes, that's the development I'm really enjoying too! Adds so much extra entertainment and cleverness to the content... 👌

"If i'm not in the mood to retouch, well i don't retouch"
imagine having this much power in your profession
That’s a luxury not many professions have. (- I‘m a nurse... and if I‘m not in the mood to deal with the 20 variations of green and brown, I still have to...)
Lol - I just don’t feel like pulling back the rods on this nuclear reactor today.
Helps when you have a backlog of work and your boss knows quality is king.
he's also demonstrating is the pillars of production.
Cost.
Time.
Quality.
You only get to pick two. From time to time the stars will align and you'll get your third but this isn't counted on and rarely hoped for.
He is his own boss so
Being an employee and an entrepreneur have their own plus and cons 😊
The more Julian talks about his father, the more I imagine him being a Tywin Lannister of conservation world
☠️😂😂
Tywin is how I'd want to be in my profession. I already act like im at that level and for the most part I'm right so i suppose I'm at a tyrion level at least
"dad do you think people will like it if I give texture to the varnish?"
"The lion does not concern himself with the opinions of the sheep!"
"Textured varnish it is"
Insect jewelry was the fashion at time, because of Egyptian archeology brining the scarab design to Europe. The interest went so far as wearing live insects on chains or in small cages
😱 Um. I can see where that'd be effective with one of those enormous iridescent Amazonian jungle beetles for example, but... eeesh!! Nasty thing to do to the insects, and just the thought of those spiny little feet perhaps touching one's skin through the jewelry cage... double eeesh!!
Thank you for this, Walter. You have brought even more important information about this painting to my heart. A young girl keeping with the times by wearing a real looking insect in her ear. I love it.
I love that she also has a row of similar bees in her hair. You can see them when he is removing the varnish from around her eyes. They are visible at the beginning as well but harder to see under the yellowed varnish.
Thank you for the observation! The idea of wearing a live insect in a cage horrified me! The discovery of a large Palmetto bug on my coat turned me into a screaming masher! However I had to go out on the internet and check. Sure enough, Truth! I have bought and carefully sewn down iridescent beetle wing casings for a specific effect. The insects are specifically raised for the purpose in Asia. I have Bee broaches in my stash as well, but they are suitably metallic!
Imagine if he just shouted randomly. We would all fall out of bed.
*glad I’m not the only one
Severely underrated

I would panic lol
100% agreed! hahahaha
You gave me my laugh of the day. Probably the week. Thank you!

You forgot engineer, researcher, and probably other stuff I'm too tired to think of. Oh, right, all of the video stuff, the voice over, probably script writing, etc... Like, how is he so capable?! I'm like, ugh, the bathroom next to my bedroom is so far away, and he's out here just getting a ton of work done, so freaking artfully! I'd almost be angry with him, if I wasn't so soothed by him.

“I can even smell the difference” juilien you restoration god
Watching Julian tack the canvas onto the back of this painting makes me want to see the state of his sock drawer. I feel like his whole life lines up cleanly like this...
julian sounds like a college professor trying to teach kindergarteners and i find that very fascinating
Let's face it, 99% of us here don't have 2 clues about it. One's lost and the other's out looking for it. However, we now know just a itty bitty, teensy weensy, miniscule bit about art restoration. Washi kozo!
@@icouldjustscream Washi kozo!!
I feel like he'd be great at both those jobs after all this display of patience...
@@icouldjustscream And the evil of staples. Who would have known that those are just toys of Satan.
And he has a very soothing calm voice.
The little lovehearts made by the rounded off keys are adorable.
I really liked the heart shaped keys too.
That was very fresh.
IKR? I love what those look like once everything is together.
Dear T.W.
👍👌👏 I instantly thought the same about the 💚- keys.
Best regards, luck and health.
I thought the same thing! So pretty and fits perfectly with the painting
I love when he politely roasts the previous restoration.
As an artist myself, I feel so loved there is someone like you who respects the artist's style and intent for the piece. Now people just take other people's art and edit them to their liking, some even doing it without the permission of the artist.Your appreciation for art and the artists mean so much to us. Thank you.
'The adhesive here isnt reversible'

UNACCEPTABLE
NON-reversible?? **throws whiskey glass into fireplace**
There is no fire in Hell hot enough to purge this sin.

can we talk about how the keys look like little hearts
Yes I noticed that too!
I WAS LOOKING FOR A COMMENT THAT SAID THAT BECAUSE THEY’RE SO CUUUTE
I thought that too!
and the overall back frame look like a silhouette of a bee :)
Bee wings!
my favourite part of this painting that you couldn't see pre-restoration is the bee hairband, like this outfit is absolutely on point
I find it charming that the keys turned out to form hearts, which to me is a visual representation of the love you put into your work. I know, that sounds corny, but it makes sense to me. Your work is exquisite. I am grateful that you make these videos to let us in on your process and provide rich information about the paintings as they are when they come to you, the decisions you make about how best to care for, restore, and conserve the paintings for the enjoyment of the owners and all others who see it, your work on the painting, and the beautiful, often breathtaking, results of your work. I have to imagine the reactions of the owners as they see the painting anew, and what a future conservator might think about your work when next this painting needs attention. I can’t imagine that that future conservator won’t appreciate the quality of your work and the care you took to make everything you did reversible, making their job easier.
“I don’t want to put a big patch that would cover up the inscription and make it impossible to read”
The past conservator: *sweating intensely*
THE SHADE HE THROWS AT PRIOR CONSERVATORS THAT DO DUMB SHIT MAKES MY NIGHTS
Baumgartner: Well, you're in my conservation studio so you're probably not doing that well.
Me: Dude, you have no idea. I'm hanging on by a thread that's fraying more than the Belgium linings you always use, things have been really tough and watching you restore paintings give me more hope than therapy ever manages to.
Baumgartner: ... I actually meant the pai-
Cameraman: No, no, let her finish.
@ Adriana: I hear you..😁💞
Haha, excellent. Exactly!
Beautiful
Me sick in bed watching this
I feel this so much.. Your reply was much more clever than mine..
the only thing scarier than a disturbing movie is julians transitions into sponsored segments.
I didn’t even see it coming
he does them so well
I find those sorts of topic shifts strangely unnerving.
If there was an award for seamless translations, Baumgartener would be a gold medalist
I wonder if, in two hundred years, a future restorer is going to say "Oh yeah - that Baumgartner guy did quality work."?
I just imagine them taking of the striplining and wondering why there were hidden tacks
Time: 2221: "Of course, the conservator of this painting had no way of knowing that Belgian linen would provide the perfect breeding ground for Jovian fungus."
If the original materials brief is included with the painting, they'll definitely say flattering things, even if they don't agree with his retouching, because it'll make their own reversal just that much easier.
Of course
please, what is the name of the small nail that uses to stretch the screen on the chassis? why use nails and not stapler?
"the artist made deliberate choices on that background"
_sweats and nervously glances at my painted backgrounds_
haha, yeah? artists do that?
Yeah, he said that and my response was "I guess you could call 'laziness' a 'deliberate choice' if you wanted to flatter me, but let's be real here."
FINE ARTISTS
Sometimes the blank void is your aesthetic, like with John Oliver on Last Week Tonight during these trying times.

Those highlights in the eyes are stunning once the varnish is removed
This painting is so beautiful. I feel like we as the audience get to know the subject, get to feel who she was. The way she stares right at you, and the little smile she has--I wonder what she was like. She seems like she would've been fun to have a cup of tea with.
Wait wait wait... This man is nearly 40? Julian has some amazing genes, because he looks like he's 25.
He's FOURTY
He is, indeed, a very skilled conservator
Dang I did not realize that
wtf are saying...
he conservated himself
Julian: ,,...and if you haven't noticed, this painting is not square"
Me: It's a triangle

I love the way you say “we have to take care of” it’s a subtle but strong way of truly engaging the viewer
Julian: “I’m going to highlight some areas in green that read odd under a black light”
*starts circling the entire painting*
youtube comments: how do you know when the varnish is gone?
julian: well i can see with my eyes
youtube comments: genius
i for real had to pause at that moment and give it a good laugh, he said "i can see with my eyes" and my brain just stopped hearing after that, as if that was the whole answer
I guess it's the same situation when math teacher watn's you to prove that it's a triangula.
- Well i can see it with my eyes
'seems a little punk rock to me' that was absolutely so much funnier than any of you give it credit for. could anyone else hear the pride of that joke in his voice or was that just me specifically
I thought he was talking to me... I said "no, not so good actually, how'd you know I come here to feel good?" and started crying... then I realized he was talking to the painting.
Who’s gonna take care of my issues, put me back together and send me on my way... why am I jealous of a painting?
Hm, probably a therapist might help at this job
@@noodle714 tell me something I don’t know. Why do you think I watch these video’s 😂
You are only being jealous of yourself. I recommend having a frank conversation with you, and ask yourself what it is you have that you wish you had?
Life's varnish has dulled and yellowed yet I'm not looking forward to another isolation layer.
That’s you fam. You are capable of taking care of yourself and putting you back together.
Watching Julian highlight in green
My inner voice: "hmm, yes....I see"
My inner voice's inner voice: "You don't see a damn thing"
Lol BIG mood🤣
Mooooood
damn, that's cutting deep
Julian talked about areas that looked odd under the black light. Not retouching, but he circled them in red and then in green. Did I miss in the video where he addressed "fixing" those? Or that it wasn't what he thought? Or any comments on those areas?
@@veramae4098 I think he mentioned that those were probably dirty old varnish areas. So I’m assuming whenever he cleaned the painting it got addressed. In one of his previous videos he said he references back to the black light multiple times, so I’m assuming after he cleaned the painting he took it to the black light room and saw that it looked better.
I like that the rounded keys look like hearts
Anytime I have insomnia I come here and let this man soothe my anxiety away with just how calm and assured he is.
Julian: You're in my Studio so you are probably not ok
Me: how did you know!?
...
Me realising it was about painting: oh
I was just about to make this comment! I did the same thing!
Haha, same!!
same.. I feel like it's a popular sentiment..
To all viewers who thought that "Probably not doing all that well" was addressed to you - I feel you.
Things are gonna get better, I promise.
You're strong and beautiful, you got this, I believe in you

Never thought id have a crush on a painting. She is so beautiful
I love that his dad was like "what are you doing? You don't know anything." and 19-year-old Julian was like "you're right but I'm gonna figure it out" and I think that's really beautiful.
I'm 19 as of writing this and I really am struggling a lot right now, hearing this and knowing that it's okay not to know what to do really touched me, I think I struggle with that a lot and am always too hard on myself, lately my mind often wanders to suicidal thoughts and It's hard to keep hold of something to help me through these times, I go to therapy and I want to persevere and try to get better for my own sake and for the hope that I'll see to a better day and a brighter future. I don't know if anybody who is going through something like this will read this, but I want to believe that there is a way out of this.
One step at the time, we've got to be kind towards ourselves too.
@@robertoferri9092 i just turned 20 and 19 was the hardest year of my entire life!!! you’ve got this, it truly is one foot in front of the other until you painstakingly learn to live in a way that is much happier.. you cant tap out now! you have hardly experienced anything yet:) sending u love
@@You-th3cn thank you, I've been better these days but it's not an easy road for sure, regardless, I've got time ahead of me to figure everything out and that's helped me a bit to calm down
19's a rough year. 18, it's like 'WOW, I'm an adult now??' and then the next year it's 'I'M NOT PROGRESSING FAST ENOUGH.'
Everyone moves at a different pace and there's more than 1 way to be successful. Some days are harder than others. And you don't see progress *because you're always looking for it* Progress is something you don't notice til enough time has gone by. One day, you'll look back and think 'I wasn't able to do this 3 years ago'
Accepting that fighting with your brain in order to keep living is going to be your reality....it's rough. You can't help that. What matters is you're actively striving for a better life for yourself. And that's admirable. I'm 27. I have a mental illness that I take medication for. We're in this sh!t together!
My father always told me i knew nothing. One day he said it and i asked "does anyone?" And he smiled amd said "i take it back boy. You know more than most of the men u work with." He was never putting me down. He just wanted me to learn while it was still easy to.
Hahaha. That new intro with the scraping and brushes revealing the logo feels very reminiscent of my childhood watching PBS shows. Something about it just takes me back.

“Paintings don’t have patina, they have....dirt”. 😂
Answer to the question, "Why not leave the old varnish as "patina"? Because no one wants a fair, pink complexion to look sallow and sickly.
"Patina" is, pardon my French, merde. It's dirt, it's decay, it's oxidation. I did furniture restoration for a spell, and it really grossed me out how some folks didn't understand that their precious patina was just a hundred years of ground-in dead skin cells and tobacco residue. The original woodworkers and tailors would've been aghast that people wanted to preserve filth on their hard work.
Cars don’t have patina, they have rust and damaged paint.
(Fight me, rat-rod boys!)
@@TheRealColBosch While I tend to agree that most furniture does not warrant the gross, sticky residue some refer to as patina, there ARE some cases where a patina is actually added by an artist. For instance, when I made a frame with beautiful carving, I added a paint called patina to add emphasis to the carving and made the recesses stand out on a guilt paint to keep it from looking flat.
When I made a stained glass panel or window, I purposely use chemicals intended to oxidize the leading lines because bright shinny silver solder distracts from the glass while dark grey and smoothly colored lines recede and even out to become part of the design. Though a few designs do call for a "copper" patina that well, looks like a dull copper.
The white filler reminded me of 'spirit photography'👻
My favorite thing about your videos is how much love and care you have for art. Hearing you talk about the paint and what the artist wanted you to see and the little details you k it by overlook is absolutely amazing! I’m a painter myself and it brings a tear to my eye to hear you speak so highly or art and the artists. Thank you
Man, the past really speaks to you through these paintings. I cannot really comprehend why watching you restore these pieces back to life makes me so happy, but it does. Thank you.
"Thats right. Because you don't know anything." Damn Mr Baumgartner.
the last time my dad said that to me i failed life
People restoring paintings back then:
*Man this is easy!*
People restoring paintings today: What the hell were they thinking?
Similar to coding:
Who was the idiot who wrote this buggy crap.
Ohhh it was me
Back then? This is recent on the scale of things. The person who done did it, might be alive...
"nobody will ever see this over painting anyway" XD
They never said "Man" back then.
I continue to be impressed by the number and variety of Julian’s tools.
Her eyes are absolutely mesmerizing and stunning. So delicate and beautiful.
gotta say, as an artist, i am always very entertained by the amount of reverence he has in his voice when he says “what the ARTIST WANTED......their CHOICES..” bc half the time i’m just like uhhhhhhhh maroon looks cool i think
Sameish. I'm an author, and when people comment on my "plot choices" I'm always like "haaaaa yeah, I don't control them, I'm just taking notes."
Same, he was talking about the background, and as an artist, im usually like "ugh yeah, ig this solid color looks pretty good with the rest cause I don't feel like doing a cohesive background" (ofc, in the context of my own work, obv portraits are different)
but that decision is still worthy of great respect, even if you don't think it's an important choice. it's still a choice you make when you make your art simply because it's your art. no one has a right to override the decision you made for your art.
Yeah, I'm like..." oh, I kinda like this color" or " maybe blue, idk?" when I'm coloring in my sculpts (3d character/environment artist). It's gonna be funny watching people try and figure out the motivations I had for my work lol.
As a writer its just as ludacris. "What exactly do you mean by this? Is it the character's disdain for those around him and his situation?" Bitch he sat down because his legs hurt what
"I wouldn't want to do anything, like put a big patch, that would cover up that inscription."
Ooooooh he throwin shaaaade
I love how he passive aggressively disses the old conservators who did bad jobs. It makes me laugh every time.
yeah throwing shade at someone who is in all likelihood dead and who did not have access to the same materials and technology that we do now. mature
@@apseudonym it’s not that deep bro
the voice, the jokes , the way he explains it clearly so we understand , telling us about his past and how he got here love it lol

Julian: "... is key"
Me: here comes the sponsorship transition
I ain’t even mad it’s so smooth
i hope he continues to do that so the long time fans would immediately know what’s up
Commercial cuts are really annoying
The segue to the paid promotion is not smooth, but it doesn't matter. Not all transitions can be smooth.
Usually I see the transition coming, but today I got caught off guard
I really thought we were getting called out when he went “how are you?.. probably not all that well” like thanks Julian I didn’t come here to get roasted
I’m not a “conservator”. Don’t @me!
I assumed he meant that comment in relation to the current world situation, many of us AREN'T doing all that well. If you felt triggered by his comment, you might want to take a look at why. I hope you ARE doing well. 🤗
Ah, my mistake! He was talking to the painting! That's what I get for leaping before I look! LOL
Not only is your work BEYOND excellent, but your transitions into your sponsors are just top tier, I have yet to see any other youtuber slid in their sponsors so smoothly. What skill don't you have!?
The only thing this man cannot do is abide the presence of staples.
"Fishing Line is weak"
Julian: Now im going to use Kevlar
"I can see..with my eyes" the power of Julian is unmatched
Julian: the adhesive on the patch is not reversible
Me after 2 years of watching Julian: who does that?! Every conservation should be reversible!!
Yeah he used contact cement what an amateur! lol
Its genuinely so enchanting how much effort and care he puts into every piece
You know that you are a successful painter when your work is given to Baumgartner for restoration.
Baumgartner: "Well hello, how are you?"
Me: I mean I'm doing okay, could be bett-
Baumgartner: "Well you're in my conservation studio so you're probably not doing that well"
Me: well...I do like to watch your videos as a stress relie-
Baumgartner: "Well let's take a look and see what's brought you here"
Me: ...oh..the painting..right
Same
Same thing here, lol 😆
julian roasting the living daylights out of whoever put the patch on the signature is my favorite part
I always love Julian's roasts of previous conservators.
Find yourself someone who will treat you with the love and care that Julian gives to these paintings 🥺
Nothing makes me feel safer as an artist than the knowledge that there are people like you who care so deeply about the intention behind the creation. Thank you so much for all the work you do, it's beautiful to see
Me, a machinist: What barbarian uses a non-reversible adhesive when patching a painting???
So uncivilised
Same
I kinda laughed how he just slammed the painting into the heating table when trying to take the wax out 😂 like he always says how Fragile all paintings are and then he just slammed that right into the table
Ohh i thought noone else noticed, that actually got me laughing😂
One step away from chokeslamming a painting in the next video
I was really surprised about that too
He did say that it wasn’t in a fragile state. Minimum paint loss, no flaking, etc.
@@susanrussell8195 i know I know, but still😂
this whole video gives me the vibes "I'm not mad, I'm dissapointed"
It’s like you turned the lights on with your restoration. Like she was in a dusty room and you took her outside or at least opened the drapes. This is amazing work and you do such a respectful loving job each time ❤❤❤❤
"Well, hello! How are you? [...] probably not doing all that well."
Honestly feeling so attacked right now.
I came here to calm down cus I was crying the entire morning after going to a psychologist for the first time
He was talking to the painting.
@@cleticiaas00 It's a good channel to calm down tho I do the same. I hope you're okay now
@@Fumbann it is and I'm much better, thanks for asking. I took a nap and feel much better now, finally gonna stop procrastinating on studying for a test haha
@@cleticiaas00 That's great! Good luck!
He approaches his conservations like a surgeon would a patient.
i remember when my doctor hammered tacks into me for 25 minutes, that wasnt a great day.
@@alex0589 my doctor gave me the god forbidden staples!
@@finn5286 .
Mine too!
Fortunately I can't even see a glimmer of a scar.
10:14 doctor: *yeets patient on back*
What a gorgeous painting, and a stunningly beautiful subject. She's radiant after the repairs, and those little, tiny bees in her hair ribbon, the tiny bee earring... they're so sweet. 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
This is straight up ASMR. His voice plus the enormous satisfaction of watching the cleaning process. Love it.
I know nothing about painting restoration but I have the audacity to think “who was the bozo who tired to restore this painting before him!??!”
Lmao the fool
Oh god... Then u should watch the brawler. It will leave u raging (and the comments are gold!)
Hahaha same
Those keys making little heart shapes honestly made my day
I noticed that too! So cute!!
I love the work done on this one. When it came in you couldn't even see her pretty hair ribbon with the bee designs, and the ruffle of her cloak was super flat. Now you can see the pretty details, and the ruffle looks fluffy and light!
@Baumgartner you probably already know this, but in case you do not: I am a museum studies student and I've talked with a few other students and museum professional about your channel. Me and my peers really appreciate these videos that you make, how you show your process and talk through your work.
