Over the past week I’ve paused several times in front of this project in progress at the Lunder Conservation Center. What was that yellow splotch on the woman’s face?
I spoke to conservator Ann Creager, who explained that she was removing the last patch of a layer of old varnish from the this portrait (circa 1850), Woman with Gold Necklace.
