This is the painting I would have been treating next if I had not left the museum conservation department last year to follow my artistic career. During the conservation of this painting by Rachel Howells, ACR and Hannah Tempest I have been dropping in as informal consultant, and doing some sketches as their work progressed.
Edward Burne-Jones: The Garden Court (K928), will be back on display at Bristol Museum and Art Gallery on Thursday 12th November 2015 after conservation treatment to mend tearing edges, flaking paint and remove the discoloured varnish. Fund raising by the Friends of the Art Gallery and individual donors. This is the painting I would have been treating next if I had not left the museum conservation department last year to follow my artistic career. During the conservation of this painting by Rachel Howells, ACR and Hannah Tempest I have been dropping in as informal consultant, and doing some sketches as their work progressed. It is only after all the structural work has been completed that varnish removal takes place, (19th May 2015 watercolour pencil). To see the restored work in person you need to visit the Bristol Museum picture galleries or visit their website http://www.bristolmuseums.org.uk/blog/burne-jones-garden-court/ Comments are closed.
