You ruined the original face of the painting. You made it look like you. Ew!

Just a amazing collection of black and white photography work just a amazing person 📸💯

Shows you these people were replaced, that why they tried to mask the correct features.

The "restorer" created a totally different person. The face is totally different and no longer what the artist created. The restorer did exactly what she said she didnt want to do which was to be the artist and not the restorer.

Utterly enchanting!

İ would love to see this!!!!

incels are crying over 'this is not historic' and 'feminism makes women ugly'. Vitorian era really fucked up so many things. Many of those 'common sense about the historical facts' are forged during victorian era.

That was absolutely fascinating! Make sure to watch the whole video, there's a reason the painting looks different (and it isn't because she ruined it lol)

Art conservation is interesting and beautiful.

She definitely got a downgrade in the looks department

Say what you want, but even though painting over a Renaissance painting for other than conservation work is obscene, the Victorian painter knew his/her way around a paintbrush. The Victorian painting is every bit as good as the original work. Nice to see Isabella back the way she originally was.

First time seeing this and I already love that lady's personality. She's awesome.

I grew up in a 1955 trailer and with a Westinghouse frig. It resembled this freezer except we had a gold color strip on front where yours is aqua. It worked into the 1990s and my dad kept watermelons in it because it was great for that. Don't ever sell that one.

The restoration seems to have changed the eyes. They don't look the seem . She is looking in a different direction . 😢 Help Baumgartner !

I really can’t believe how these psychos destroy these paintings. These works of art should NEVER be tampered with.

A great tribute to a masterful painter for all times, never recognized for his talent in France while he lived his short life. The presenter has some important insights, but unfortunately, her microphone and the audio is difficult to understand for most non-native-English speakers. Please improve the audio commentary on these wonderful art-education videos from this museum.

Wonder what Queen Victoria and her clan really looked like then????

Shit looks ruined...

I wanna smoke a blunt with her

Before more better.

I prefer the Victorian version to that ugly woman with bulging eyes. Take her away!

لقد اصبحت قبيحة

she looks 30 years older after restoration :D

Her eye is off.

I remember my grandmother bringing me to view the presepio every year when I was a small child. It's an incredible piece of art and history. To me, it belongs as it is depicted here in the Hall of Architecture as opposed to the the Museum of Art where it was relocated a few years ago. Architecture Hall was it's traditional home and, to me, it just looks better in this setting.

In my humble opinion, the Presepio looked much better when displayed in Architecture Hall. It was presented in this location for many years (as long as I can remember) and was recently moved to the Art Museum. To me it just looks smaller and less impressive in its new location.

It has such hope

Eeeeesh

We thank you for preserving the family history ⚡️

Maybe she's a little eccentric, but I'm 30 seconds in and its obvious that this woman bleeds with passion over her work. Amazing to see. <3

Everytime I see one of these it shows how often past conservators/restorers inserted themselves

That's black magic. My tiny brain can't comprehend this level of skill and care. Amazing.

ah...victorians...always ruining everything.

SHI WAS CHANGE THE FACE !

Damn Victorians ruin everything.

In the photo with the two before and after photos their faces are completely different and yes I'm smart enough to see one is dirty and the other is clean so let's get that out there before responses explain that but the shape and dimensions of the heads are completely different.

Horrible!

Is this part 2?.....your talking as if I should know the history of the painting, you did give a small recap at the end but by that time I'd lost interest

Send a porcelain doll through a sandblaster?! No problem. 😢

Where did the urn come from between the "original" before and now the after?

Great videos, could you let us know what exactly you use to remove the old yellowish varnish?

Scrolling down through the comments makes realized we have witnessed just the tip of the iceberg of the damage Instagram is doing to people's notion of beauty and the extreme fear of ageing...

Is there another video showing the removal of the overpainting? The difference shown in the thumbnail is so striking that it would be interesting to watch as it was removed

Either way, one version is gone and it's sad...

Should of left it alone. The paint job did her a favour.

Before she looked to one side, then she started looking at us 🤔🤔🤔

The original face is just bad, very bad portrait painting, it is not about the beauty of the model. All the stuff about beauty standards of the time is BS mixed with modern feminist sensitivities. I am an artist and knowledgeable about Renaissance art, Mannerism , etc. It is flat, anatomically wrong, poorly drawn and worse painted, the Victorian guy did it a favor, really and although it shows to be from a posterior time it is still closer to the standards of the great masters. And if the Victorian intervention doesn't have anything to do with the real appearance of Isabella de' Medici neither does the original. There are other portraits of Isabella painted by true masters at different moments of Isabella's life. Google them. She really was a beauty, that thing though is anything but easy on the eyes of anyone in any age. It reminds me more of in Picasso's Demoiselles d'Avignon. XD

HA HA HA ! à l'époque ils utilisaient déjà photoshop.
