Do you know how the damage was caused?

No idea Ted a leading dealer in these religious icons will be selling it after l finish.

 

[Jonathan Shively]

Is the white paint? Are the correct colors under the white? Or, is the white damage and the top painted portion is missing?

 

[Leo Voisine]

WOW - a challange indeed.

You need to repaint all of the white area?

 

[Paul Douglass]

Well I have confidence in you also. No doubt in my mind you will repair it to better than it was originally.

White is stucco that is repairs to missing stucco.

[Darren Wright]

This is the Madonna and Child? So do you have a photo or image you are using to recreate or is it open to interpretation? Are you restoring/cleaning the rest of the painting? or has it already been cleaned?

Darren, I'm just doing the in painting. Little bit of free painting but mostly following lines. The more I look at it as I proceed the more I'm able to interpret.

If this were a vehicle, it would have a "rebuilt title" once fixed. Will this painting have a paper trail following it showing it was repaired?

Yes it will and how and what was done.

Blocking in damaged area

 

[Dave Hawksford]

It's moving slow. Sitting back and understanding what needs to be done has to be correct.

 

[Jonathan Shively]

Have you traced it on paper and then filled in lines to get it correct first?
