Follow along as Julian Baumgartner of Baumgartner Fine Art Restoration in Chicago works to conserve and restore this icon of Ave Maria. This piece was likely created in a workshop that specialized in religious icons for churches and was the product of several craftspeople and artists with no one claiming ownership or signing the work. These icons appeared commonly throughout Europe and were often lost during war or the closure or relocation of a church.
This piece came in with very little provenance other than that the original owner was an antiques dealer who traveled extensively throughout Europe in the 50's and 60's collecting pieces for sale back in the USA. This was one that the dealer held on to.
Covered in years of grime and linseed oil with extensive losses and instability this icon was at high risk for further losses if not complete destruction. The process of conserving and restoring the piece was delicate and tedious but the end result reveals how it might have looked to parishioners when it was first revealed.
This version of the video includes a narrated walk-through of the work being performed. There is an ambient sounds-only version here: • The Restoration of Ave...

So to be an art restorer you need to be a chemist, an engineer, a carpenter, a surgeon, and an artist?
And a lot more than that, mainly ‘patient'. 😅this man is incredible.
Varsha he said in another video u dont have to be a painter or good at painting to do art restoration, retouching is mostly just doing reaaaally small touches to the damaged parts. just patience in that aspect
@@zounch ehh i mean you do have to be a good artist if some big parts of the painting are not there. honestly i dont think he did a good job painting the parts left because it looks weird and very obvious it wasnt there before. but everything else is so good
zounch hounch You definitely do need to at least be an artist in the aspect of colors though, his ability to color-match is insane!

Once in a while, I will re-watch an old video of Julian Baumgartner's work, for the same reason that I will re-watch "Casablanca" - for the deep pleasure that I get from watching a masterpiece unfold before my eyes.
Preach it. I have now watched this restoration about eight times and I always learn something I missed the previous times. There is nothing like having a front row seat to watch a master work.

Same here, but I do think her expression is much more subtle and kinder in the dirty painting.
I mean..the harsh one is what the original artist meant, appareantely.
But in the beginning she looked like; 'Ahhhh...hmmm...I'm kind Mary, love love, everyone is nice..hmm..Ohh I better pray before I forget it."
And now she looks like she's saying; "Yes, I heard you mom! YE-HES MOM! FINE! Yés I'm praying, duh! Pfff.....boring prayers...."

Every time I come back to this video and get to the gold leafing part, I have flashbacks to when I spilled an entire bottle of gold leafing size on my work table. Just knocked the whole thing over.
It never dries, Julien. IT NEVER DRIES. IT JUST GETS MORE STICKY.
It's been a couple years now and I am still occasionally finding a sticky spot on that table. It was such a nightmare.
just gild the table at this point
@@niceferatungl, that’s what I would’ve done. 😂
Good to know that spilling it would be a major pain though. I’ll keep it in mind if I ever try my hand at gilding because spilling things you never want to spill just so happens to be my specialty!
I would have just gotten some $6 spray varnish from hardware store and blasted it all over.

This is one of those restorations that I wish was a longer video like the newer ones. Also wish I knew why the client wanted the gold leaf SO darkened up. I know metals patine over time, but without being told it's real gold leaf I'd never know or guess. 😯😯
i was thinking this rn... I was rewatching it after a looking time and all o could think was AAAA WHY IS IT SO SHOOORT it's WAY shorter than I remembered 😂
I just watched the 4 part "Wood you believe we're at it again", about 2 hours for restoration. This is only 11 minutes -- 10% of the time!!! I wanted more details!
@@AviMarcusif he keeps all of the footage he films then I’d be willing to bet he’s got at least an a couple hours worth of footage of this restoration that he could edit together and post. I know all of us would watch every minute of it too!
Also… I’m not a huge fan of gold so maybe the client wasn’t either but they didn’t want to change it too drastically?
Edit: actually, after seeing it, I realized he darkened it so it would match the rest of the painting, as he mentions. He only gilded sections that were missing. If he’d kept the gold bright, it would’ve obviously been a repair. The only way to brighten the older gilding to make it and the repair match would have been to re-gild those areas too and I’m pretty sure that would go against the restorer’s code of ethics. It would be like overpainting a face because you don’t like the expression or overpainting the background to an entirely different color just to match your home decor. In other words… a restoration no-no. 😂

My thoughts exactly.. As a painter and an artist myself.. I say do what ever you must to make that painting look like the artist intended.. As to how that is done.. I haven't a bloody flipping clue XD
@@lafleurstudios uhhh as an artist and painter just knowing that "what if this was a divinci, van gogh, etc." My anxiety was exactly that. And from watching his vids i know that you never start from the face. Thats just common knowledge. However, ive seen enough of this guys vids to know that he knows what hes doing so i dont have a problem with it. But traditionally you dont want to "test" on an importsnt part of the painting 😂
He has 20 years of experience and people on the internet think they are armchair artists or something. I don't even care. This dude just wipes his brush on a painting and it's fucking cleaner than anything in the world.
@@lafleurstudios Yes, there are rules, but at the end of the day, if something works, it works. Each piece is a unique journey. ^^
Lol! True
This is one of my favorite videos from you. Even 3 years later I still watch it on a regular basis.
Same, I love it so much, it’s one of my favourites
me too :)
What impresses me most of all is the calmness of the restorer and his obvious confidence in his ability to complete quite a serious restoration. Whether he’s already been through the. “Oh my God!!” , phase earlier is up for question, but I doubt it. This is a wonderfully calming and emotionally restorative video and I thank Mr Baumgartner for letting me into his world
I'd like a super cut of him saying "for fuck sake", "jesus", "oh bollocks", "christ", "what the...", "oh you fucking idiot", "fuckfuckfuckfuck"
I did not see him beat the devil out of his brush ...

Must be a witch!
This guy's like a doctor for artwork.
This patient came in critical but luckily was saved and is now in stable condition.
pretty certainly he has a Phd
just googled it. apparently he has not, but would be a good candidate i guess
When i saw him injecting all that resin, he seemed more like an embalmer to me, injecting formaline into a dead body to preserve it.
I love the fact that he used different technique so one can assimilate the restored part form the original piece. It shows so much respect for the artist.
This feels like the designer version of power washing. I am surprisingly soothed by his voice and watching the process.

I'm a commercial painter. When I sand a wall that's been patched I use my barehand to feel the sanded patches because I have found that if you can feel an imperfection you will see it in the finished product. So enjoyed this restoration
I almost lost my mind when you started using the peach colored gel to remove the layers of grime from the paint. This was INCREDIBLE! Amazing job!

Hate to bring a sad topic up but, I was having some heavy anxiety and as soon as I watched your videos it just, faded away. Thank you so much, you are such a talented person and your videos are art themselves. ✨
Thank you Julian. I found your vids by accident and have loved them. I thought to myself that my daughter would love them too so I spoke to her. She knew your stuff already and we had a great chat about your work and what it would take to become a restorer. Then a few weeks later she told me that she had applied to the University of Western Australia to study Art History.....and she was accepted. I think that among other things she was motivated by your work to do something in the same line.......so again...thank you.
this is beautiful I hope she is doing well

While you doing the color-matching art portion may need help from others... I like to believe you can still do it. Art restoration isn't just color-matching after all. It includes skill and lots of patience and love for the artworks. I believe that those limits shouldn't be able to stop you if you really wanted to do this. Limits are simply extra burdens and you can get through them if you are determined enough. I like to think that if colorblind artists exist, surely colorblind conservators can exist as well. Just wanna cheer people up...! 💗
This is so incredibly soothing to watch, and moving at the same time to see something so broken come to life again.
I'm always surprised by how dark with grime old paintings are, and the fact that they're not supposed to be that dark. I feel like that's something I should've learned in art history: that old paintings weren't all painted dark and gloomy like they may appear now; that that's built-up dirt and darkened varnish, and can be cleaned away.
Emily E B good point!
Hear hear! And restore we shall!
It's kind of a similar reason as to why we thought that ancient Greek architecture and statuary was just plain white marble for the longest time, that is until our technology in microscopy and chemical analysis improved and we could find traces of many different brightly colored paints.
before people figured it out (bc who wants to come near the mona lisa or some shit a solvent that could possibly damage it) they taught in art schools that old masters like raphael n them would tint everything yellowish bc that was the style or w/e but of course we've learned that its old varnish n dust now
Yeah the mona lisa would look a lot less creepy if they actually cleaned it back to its original colours rather than wanting to retain the air of mystery that the age provides
this channel is making me have so much more appreciation for the timelessness of art. imagine being this artist and seeing the amount of love and detail that went into the preservation of it.
same feeling here..
Yup, totally the same!
Same
Or seeing how poorly treated it was all this time
This painting is kinda garbage. It's probably no more than 140 years old. It was just kept in an outbuilding or something. He probably paid 10x as much for the restoration than the painting is worth.
How brave do you have to be to even consider saving this? I'm watching this again and marveling again! Thanks Julian.
Stuff like that always gives me flashbacks of "García Martínez - Face of Jesus" botch job
I was wondering what was up with the stripes in the quiet version. To say essentially, ‘this is to tie the image together and not to pretend it’s from the original artist’, there’s a respectable humility in that. Great work m8
I think now it's time for you to step to another level -> Notre-Dame de Paris restoration.

The way he speaks is so nice. It’s so calm and clear that auto-subtitles are almost perfect already.
Im not lying. This video give me things that I never know I need it 😭❤
I am just blown away that you actually took the time and consideration to figure out not only what was on the painting in terms of debris and contamination, but also how you could make a video on cleaning it that would be *entertaining* for the audience as well. All without risking significant chances of damage to the piece.
Being aware of your audience while maintaining a professional approach to the work at hand is art in and of itself and it should not go unrecognized.
beautifully said!
Its is job that’s why
Well said! This video is amazing.
litmus pie buts its still his job, if he didn’t have this job he would go unpaid no matter how much passion he has
@@IamBurgerMan He himself explains that this is to preserve the "authentic" parts of the piece. I would assume this is so that *his* work isn't mistaken for that of the artist's so that viewers will be able to appreciate the artifact. At the same time, he made it similar so that without close inspection, people can still appreciate the piece as a whole.
It's a matter of respect for the original artist, not "forgoing" their intentions.
would be cool to see the clients reaction at the end of the video :)
omg yes

He’s more like the reincarnation of Bob Ross or something
@Shahad Tamanov watch Mr bean restoring a painting on TH-cam xD
This is relaxing to you? Watching this video gives me anxiety. Every time he does something, I'm worried he's going to end up destroying a priceless piece of art.
I imagine if the person who painted this painting could watch this video they would be so grateful to you for saving their painting!!!!!
Probably the medieval version of commercial mass produced art where they'd watch this and wonder what the fuss was about. "I made hundreds of these, and this one looks like one of the ones I shouldn't have let out of the shop... yeesh."
I think they'd be pretty freaked out by a TV mate
danieljamesmead tbh even if they didnt mind the tv they would prolly be horrified to see what happened to their paintings before the restoration
i was thinking about the original artist too. if they could only see their art still out here thriving with its new restoration
i think they'd be more re surprised it survived this long lol
OMG these vids are still super instructional. Never seen footage shot in his previous studio, was it ever tiny! So glad he now has the new studio to work in.
I feel like he’s the kinda guy who’s really good at games like Janga and operation
I'm sure he pours drinks at parties with absolute precision.
I find it crazy how you know what to do for every single problem
I can’t even put a sticker on a fucking fisher price toy and you just plopped those pieces down like it was nothing
You have a real talent my man, I’m happy to see people preserving these beautiful pieces of history
Especially the way he placed the first piece down somewhere in the middle so perfectly, he didn't even have to move it to fit the other pieces. I'd have to start at the corners to make it all straight lol.
He did have refrences but damn!
Those fisher price toys are demonic! >:(
Unbelievable talent. Mindblowing restoration of a very old and venerable religious painting.
This is by far the most impressive restoration. The sheer extent of the damage was so massive, yet it was restored marvelously.
As a freshman student for restoration and conservation of cultural objects myself, I find it useful that you're explaining every step of the restoration process. There are many years to come for me to become a professional like you, but this is definitely motivating. Thanks for sharing your work!
What major do you take to become an art conservationist? And how many years do you have to study?
@@cutienerdgirl I guess it depends on your country. I'm from Mexico and there are some colleges that focus only on art and cultural objects conservation. It's a 5 year long program. I know you can specialize in a specific technique after college tho, i.e. Italy for paintings and sculptures, England for textiles, Germany for stone... I don't know much abt how it is in the States tbh I only know there are art conservation schools in NY and Miami :). Sorry I couldn't be more helpful...
Pink i know your comment is about a year old but hopefully this can still help! i’m in the states and planning to become an art conservationist. Look for a college that offers art history as a major., studio arts major might also work. (I’m majoring in art history with an emphasis on conservation.) That’s about 4 years of undergraduate to get your bachelors degree. Then get your masters at a school that specializes in art conservation. That’s about 2 more years. Finally after college you do an internship/apprenticeship under an experienced art conservationist/ restorer. The amount of time will vary with what exactly you choose to specialize in. Wishing you the best 💓
@@laneroadhighway One year later I'm starting my third semester as an art conservator, I've already gone through ceramics conservation for a whole year and will be focusing on mural painting this year. I'd also recommend studying a minor in chemistry or at least attending some serious courses about it, it really comes in handy so that you know which type of solvents, pigments, and overall materials will make the restoration more stable. Good luck!
tangerin__a thank you so much for your advice!! I appreciate it so very much! Good luck this semester!! 🥺🥰💓✨
That must have been a ridiculously expensive restoration. I'm always so amazed what he can pull off, as this one looked near impossible to restore and conserve.
esard2011 yeah this was very hard and a lot of work, plus gilding too, hopefully he was paid a lot to do this
As the video went along I couldn’t help but to count the zeros after that “1” he must have charged to restore this...I got to a humbling “That will be $1.75 Centillion dollars. Thank you, come again!”
My joy is watching you tackle these complex restorations seemingly undaunted, with such a tender spirit about your work. Beautiful.💐

as an artist, every time i watch one of these i start happy crying because i imagine the original artists seeing their work beautifully restored to its original glory after years of damage, they would be so incredibly appreciative of your hard work
Thank you for explaining why it made me cry.
Perfect explanation.x
I know right! I wish I could see the original artists reaction to their restored artwork. I bet they'd all be grateful and happy.
As someone who is a non-artistic peasant such as myself, I can still imagine exactly what you're talking about.
For the past week I've been watching these in the background while I worked on my drawing final; these were really nice to listen to!
Of all the resto channels I watch, you are the only true restoration expert. I find your content so informative and relaxing.
Me: never really heard of or cared about restoration of art in my whole life.
TH-cam: check this
Also me: it’s 4 am and I’ve watched six episodes 🙈
I think I watched each video several times.
Same 🤚
Can you restore my faith in humanity?
Perhaps. But it will involve a lot of needles!
Nah, nothing can fix that, maybe some cute videos. I tried but still stumble upon some video which once again makes me loose my faith in humanity.
Stop watching the news.
😊
TOTAL DEPRAVITY
That final reveal was beautifully done. And clever too
Absolutely amazing
