London’s Painted Hall at the Old Royal Naval College is reopening after the completion of a two-year conservation project
A gallery assistant poses during the reopening of The Painted Hall, Old Royal Navy College in London, Britain, March 20, 2019.
Conservation director Will Palin said the work - depicting English naval prowess, monarchs as well as mythological figures - had been cleaned and had lost paint flakes restored during the $11.2 million project. “But that moment with the ceiling being lit and the colours coming through and the vibrancy, the richness of the painting revealed, it was very moving I felt quite ... emotional.”
“It is 40,000 square feet of baroque decorative painting ... an extraordinary achievement ... of international significance,” McConvill said.
