Thomas Moore, by an Unknown artist (American 1780’s), Before and After Treatment. The painting suffered from water damage, had an old tear with an old canvas patch, and was very loose on its strainer. It also had a degraded varnish, causing a patchy sheen. The strainer was replaced, the old patch was removed, and planar deformations were removed. Then the painting was cleaned, paint losses were filled, a fresh varnish was applied, and paint losses were in-painted to match the surrounding paint film.
