- This is the restoration of a moldy watercolor of Figures Fishing on a Lake in North Wales in 1876 by British artist Cornelius Pearson. Lets dive into the delicate, intricate process of fine art restoration on a moldy watercolor that is heavily damaged.

I would hve loved to see Baumgartner restore this
I always want to see the restorations done by Julian. I havent found anyone quite like him :) The satisfactions is sadly not here
I don't think he does watercolours - if he did, he'd have done one by now
@@nacekozo I´m quite sure we have´nt even seen the top of the iceberg of work. From all we have, he has done loads of different work and Im sure he has done watercolours aswell :) Anyways, it was just a general statement of love for his work :)
Could the owners have afforded him to do it
How is the mold killed on the paper to stop it dead? Lots of stuff is left out.
I'm a little surprised that the glass wasn't replaced with UV blocking glass. The mount was modern materials and modern techniques - certainly, UV glass would further protect the the work.
I can't believe a Pearson ended up in that condition. Terrible. Thank god for an awesome restoration.
Did not get rid of the mold it will just return
It needs the pinstripes on the matt, it is floating about in space in a frame that is too big.
Beatiful job, thanks for sharing!!
Beautiful!
So you don't actually show the framed original in the frame at the end, only a digital composite? That's not cool. I wanted to see the actual painting in the frame with the actual mat and glass and all that, not a mockup done in Photoshop.
They showed it and an enhanced copy available for sale in their shop. 😏
@@tljones_books Look at 27:38, they showed a Photoshop composite of the scan of the image with an image of the frame, and a blank white space to indicate the matboard area. It was not a photo of the framed piece.
@@siansoneashenanigansEverything you see on your little electric frame is a digital composite… Did you really need to see her table or some bloke wall behind it to feel less frustrated with whatever is eating you?
@@noeraldinkabam Nah, I'll just tell TH-cam not to recommend this channel, so I won't see anything at all from this channel anymore.
Maybe I'd like less white space around the image. But as it should be.
28:34 is perfect for me.
i am curious why the frame cant be cleaned with a large brush dipped in alchohol, give it a bath with a brush. Is that because of the gold in the frame?
possibly because of how loose the flakes and plaster were. old frames are much more fragile than new ones, especially after mould and damp damage.
Julian Baumgartner would be having heart palpitations watching this! Whoever was doing this work appears to have the manual dexterity and conservation skills of a 5 year old
nonsense. Julian doesn't even do watercolour or paper conservation/restoration. standard practice is entirely different for different media

Nonsense. This person is obviously a skilled conservator.
Was the painting itself cleaned? Or did I miss it?
you missed it - that formed a major part of this video
Harikasınız,insanlık için büyük bir iş yapıyorsunuz.Tebrikler.❤🎉
Oho PH screwdriver in a PZ screw….. so stupid. And is it all done with archival paper, paint and glue?
no - it's done with newspaper, dulux gloss and loctite

Awful mid Atlantic accent but good video .
Please use gloves when touching the art
A soft scrubbing pad, some bleach, and viola! Easy. :) And run the vacuum over it.
I would have removed that mold with a pressure washer. I got one at Home Depot last year to clean off my patio. 3500 PSI will do the trick.
Shall we ignore some pillocks here who clearly are more interested in casting shade than learning...Meanwhile, I have often wondered how a watercolour could be saved and in this case, from such a gruesome fate! Thank goodness for the HVAC support and the patience! My quibble would be the actual accuracy of the dobbed cerulean blue in the upper left corner: a bit too much there and not enough light warm grey to tone it down? And I agree with some about the missing pinstripe on the new (very white!) wide mat. Some paintings deserve a more subtle surround. Overall VERY interesting insight. Sorry the digital enhanced idea did not impress me. It just looked, well, digitally enhanced and not like a watercolour at all.
