Early C18th Family Portrait

 

This picture had suffered much wearing of the surface during its long life, which had included at least two restorations. In the most recent one, an interesting detail in the background of a ship crashing upon rocks had been completely overpainted.

 

There was enough detail left to make reconstruction of small missing areas possible, thus restoring the legibility of the image – and telling us more of the life of a seagoing man.
