Up until the Baumgartner YouTube channel I had zero clues as to how a conservator would handle an aged painting in disrepair—exactly the reason why these videos are so relaxing and insightful. Now that I’ve seen everything he has put out to the world I know the steps he undertakes, techniques he uses and the logic behind them. If you’re on the lookout for something educational on how to restore paintings and artworks with minimal talking, you have arrived. When I first discovered them I spent plenty of evenings just watching those hands remove old varnish, retouch the paint and showcase the final results. Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!
