      Baumgartner is like a modern day sophistication of the art restoration industry. Stripping all the fancy studio equipment, cinematic framing of the footages and the drama of Julian's voice over, its just Sara Drew's same work. both are absolutely intensive and impressive indeed.

    As a future conservator i feel terror and satisfaction while watching these kind of videos... I'm in my first semester in university and I'm still learning the basics.
    Edit: I am in second semester and i love the university. Although we have web classes i still managed to love them. It is really interesting as a subject and it saddened me that i did know it earlier.
    Edit 2: It's the finals of the second semester and the university is one of the best things in my life so far. And all the subjects are really interesting as time passes by.
    Edit 3: Now finals of the 4th semester, one hour before art exams. This semester was the most exciting one because the subjects were amazing and all my personal life turned 180, now i feel great. I love what i do more and i get more creative every day. I love this university. Still 2 more years to go!☺️
    P.s: I have to say that i still feel terror while i have to deal with works of art but I've learned that this is okay.

    Jeez, I hate that there are people out there who keep calling themselves Baumgartner fans and keep comparing people to him in every single restoration/conservation video. It's exhausting and frankly quite tacky. The majority of us are not professionals in the field, and the little we know has been filtered through the lens of that one man. The methods he uses are neither unique to him, nor are they infallible. I don't understand how people can consider him so precious to the point of basically badgering everyone else with his name!
    The same way, I can't understand those who come to disparage him and his reputation. Criticism aside, some people just keep throwing shade and not stating facts as to why he's not well-regarded. Don't just dish it out, bring out the receipts. At the end of the day, his work is fully reversible.

    I'm glad that this profession has got more exposure!
    It is amazing how to restore one painting, there are SO MANY things to be done.
    And it is amazing they have a whole TEAM to do this ❤️ it shows that every single aspect is handled by a professional ❤️
    Old paintings are really amazing

    Great vid! And great work. Only thing I'd say to people, is to not shine UV light on your skin like that - wear gloves! And ideally, safety glasses that protect from UV.

    As a collector of porcelain and terra cotta figurines who sometimes needs restoration services, I find this fascinating. Obviously not the same techniques or technology, but still attention to detail and expertise. Thanks for sharing.

They both need cleaning and some restoration on the Smith painting. Very excited about learning more about art restoration. Thanks for the video.

    Started out sounding like she came from the same as Baungartner and the narration was almost exactly what he says. I thought she did well, but was less than please by the owner’s work. The frame looked fab and the retouching was great. 💕🐝

    What most people don’t think about is these conservators are extremely talented artists in their own right but chose to restore others work instead of creating their own! These people are artists, scientists, chemist and historians all rolled into one!

    The Baumgartner fandom can be pretty toxic sometimes!
    As an art conservator myself, I find some of this comments so funny just for the fact that most of them come from people that watched a couple of videos and now they act like pros.

    • @PhiKapLad
      @PhiKapLad 4 года назад +3

      I think much of it comes from not realizing how many ways there are to skin a cat so to speak. In addition, many professionals have certain preferences on how they do things and this causes then to create a false dichotomy between right and wrong. People need to realize that the process of conserving anything is unique to each item and the demands/expectations of the client.

    • @marmalitemayo2978
      @marmalitemayo2978 3 года назад

      Honestly true. Question, genuinely what do you think of Baumgartner's conservation methods? Is he doing a fine job? The end results looks fine for me but I'm not a conservator so idk how to asses his methods.
