Blue Skies Smilin' At Me; Conserving A Henry Ranger Seascape AD FREE
🕑 Added 2020-10-08 23:06:57 +0000 UTCHenry Ranger was a New York painter known for his seascapes and marine scenes. He was a prominent Tonalist and founder of the Old Lyme Art Colony.
This painting of the ocean with some meandering sailboats was clearly a tonal painting when it arrived, only the wrong tone. with years of surface grime and a heavily discolored varnish the painting had taken on a very yellow cast. As the varnish was removed a few interesting discoveries were made that complicated the conservation.

Did it changed the background music 🤔
Ahhhhh <3 my most favorite video. ad-free <3 I've watched this (with ads) more than a dozen times already and I still get so amazed during the cleaning process. It really must be a special feeling while uncovering the painting that was under so much grime. Love it.
