The Queen saw her self-portrait exhibited in 1851 (the painting in the video) at the Royal Academy and commissioned a second self-portrait which she gave to Prince Albert for Christmas in 1853.

The major criticism of the recent cleaning of the Sistine Chapel ceiling is that the conservators removed layers of what was not accretions of dirt and grime, but painting a secco applied by Michelangelo atop the fresco that added volume and dimension to his figures.

I honestly feel blessed that I got here just 14 mins after it's been uploaded 🖖🏼💖 It's 10:45pm in the PH and I've just taken a short break from studying Organic Chemistry cause I have a test tomorrow, and honestly this has leveled me and made me take a breather from the stress of studying non-stop. Thanks for uploading (specifically) w/ narration 😋🌃📚

I'm blown away by the details to skin tone. The depth in the arm of the painting. It's so realistic. The hands.. The shadows.. The highlights.. It's amazing what artists are capable of.

I could admire his skill and meticulousness for hours.

[@maximemaxime3564]

I dare not imagine how moving and gratifying it must be to work on such masterpieces.. One does not choose this profession without being passionate about art and giving new life to a work by a great artist must give boundless satisfaction! Congratulations to all those people who preserve our cultural heritage.

“This varnish will remain soluble for about 102 years...” Surely the word “about” makes the number 2 unnecessary?
