Of all the tens of thousands of paintings I've seen and worked on, there's one type that has the ability to consistently capture my attention and heart and that's portraiture. Even though this painting has no title, belongs to no artist and has been all but lost to history, one look tells us that there's something magical here worth preserving.

I started working at an arthistorical institute a year ago. my job is to aid in the preservation of the artworks and the accessibility of information about the artworks to the general audience - or, in normal English, I help put information on the internet. I don't think I would have ended up in this line of work if it wasn't for the love for preservation your channel has instilled in me. thank you, Julian, for indirectly presenting this opportunity to me.

@@jorllima the oldest video on this channel is 6 years old, so plenty of time to be inspired and get a degree if they do have one.

@@garyallen8824 I checked to confirm my hunch: wrong era for that gown; no such pouffy sleeves in the 1740s. I am a bit confused by the very simple front bodice with low and wide neckline, and ribbon choker. Yet between the sleeves, the neckline, the hat-also simpler than expected-I would think late 19th century. The subject is rather young, so I would think the portrait was made to attract suitors for a young girl who just reached marrying age. That could also explain the simplicity of the outfit, as they'd want to bring attention to her beauty, not show off the wealth of the family (who can anyway afford to commission a portrait of their daughter). France or England I couldn't say, as there was much sharing of fashion between the two countries, and the background shows only clouds, but I am going to go with another hunch and say the artist was Austrian. No one will shame me for it, I hope! 😉

@@stereonacht2247 that neckline looks like a pair of full length stays, which were only in fashion until the mid/late 1790s and were often worn as an outer garment. My guess would probably be 1790-1800, since that style of hat was very popular in the late 18th century, but the chemise is starting to show signs of what will become the regency silhouette. We probably haven’t made it too far into the 1790s though, since the stays are still full length and conical without the busk that people started using starting in the early 1800-1810s. Hence my guess being early 1790s. Another thing to consider is how fashion forward this subject was. My guess of 1780s only works if my assumption about her personality is true, that being that she is fashion conscious and fairly wealthy due to having a jaunty portrait made in a nice but somewhat eccentric outfit.

I think the loss is a big part of why we feel so connected to the portrait. The imagination of each individual makes the picture something special. She is not just the daughter of a successful 19th century merchant or a successful woman of her time herself. Nor is she nobody. She is simply everything. Everything we can imagine, and in the best way we can think.

I researched and wrote a biography of a California Gold Rush pioneer a few years ago and a publisher told me there were two stories there - obviously the first being the story of the pioneer but also my involvement in researching, compiling, and writing his biography. I, in fact, became part of his biography - his life's story. That surprised me and pleased me greatly to be made aware of now what is a personal tie to that person. And as it should be for you. You don't know the name of the artist, nor that of the sitter, but the artist's skill at portraiture, the beauty, and that "come hither" look you ascribed to the sitter's gaze plus now your involvement because you 'revived' the artist's image of the sitter, puts you in that painting's provenance. You have become an intrinsic member of what was once a duo (artist and sitter) and are now part of a platonic 'menage a trois'. Congrats... // This was a very well-done Vlog episode. I really enjoyed your running technical commentary and verbal essay on/about this portrait painting. Well said.

30:32 This reminds me of the scene in the French movie, Portrait of a Lady on Fire. The movie showcases the relationship between a portraitist and her sitter. The painter, when told by her sitter that her rendition wasn't true to her, destroyed the painting in a rage. However, a few days hence, her sitter agrees to sit for her (as before this she had been surreptitiously painting her without her notice) However, when the day comes and they both sit, the sitter, Heloise, calls to the Artist, Marianne, and tells her, that even though Marianne looked at Heloise intently enough to create a near Lifelike rendition of her, she, Heloise too looks just as intently at Marianne. The gaze, the sitter's gaze is just as powerful as the artists. The power of a gaze, even if it is through a layer of paint and canvas, can be enough to make you come undone

I've even used some of your retouching techniques in my photo editing. Photoshop is great and all, but there are times when cloning or using a healing brush leaves a lot to be desired. Taking an extra few minutes to break up what I've done with small dabs of colour or even small clone or healing spots makes all the difference. This was a fun video.

Beautiful work, on a beautiful subject. As I watched the cleaning of this portrait unfold; and as I came to grips of what I was feeling I was immediately transported back 1980 to the movie... Somewhere in Time and how my breath was stopped for a moment as my gaze was transfixed on the portrait of Jane Seymour. I get the same feeling now, that I did in 1980; that the artist caught the look of the woman right as her lover entered the room.

Beautiful, the painting definitely came alive. It is such a shame that the details of the artist and sitter have been lost in the annals of time. Thank you Julian for another superb restoration.

It's amazing how Julian keeps coming up with those wild fonts in the thumbnails I thought after some time he would have enough and stick with one, but THEY. JUST. KEEP. GETTING. CRAZIER

My dad used to work in art restoration and preservation at the art institute of Chicago. He passed a few years ago when I was in college. And ever since I’ve been researching all the things he used to enjoy and the sides of him I never knew. Like the artist who was passionate about preserving art. He lost a lot of his interests when his depression got bad and I never got to see them. So I’m doing that now. It helps me keep him alive. And instead of thinking of him making me sad, now it fills me with love for him and all the things he loved in life.

Absolutely brilliant restoration of a wonderful portrait. As you say, the portrait is intriguing, it is special, perhaps the mystery of the unknown model. No doubt that is the work of a great painter. Congratulations.

Your infinite patience it maintaining the artist's details, which unto themselves are amazing, keeps the true value of this portrait. The thickness of the rabbit glue caused me to gasp. Thank you for your very fine work.

The sitter was so beautiful. Her gaze seems so realistic as though she’s actually sitting in front of you looking your way. The artist did a phenomenal job. It’s a shame that they’re both unknown.

It's a lovely painting, and you did it great justice in restoring it, and bringing it to us as well! The point of art is to be viewed, after all, and the additional layer of explanation and philosophizing is why I love returning to this channel time and time again

Thank you so much for your videos. The time you take explaining your processes really helps me appreciate the work you do. Thank you.

Wow! The cleaning made such a huge difference! Beautifully painted portrait of a lovely looking woman. The mind does wonder about the sitter. Who was she? Was she simply a model for the painter? Did they know one another? Was the artist doing a commissioned painting? It's fun to let the mind wander through the stories that could be woven as the backstory.

First of all, let me say thank you to the RU-vid algorithm for randomly, putting one of your videos into my feed. I was a custom picture framer and art gallery manager for over 15 years. I have seen many old portraits and photographs looking like this. Luckily, I was fortunate enough to work with an amazing conservator. But, she was nowhere in your league. I think you’re brilliant and I’m absolutely hooked on your channel. Thank you so much from a new subscriber

I love how you are always so precise and the life that you restore to each is simply amazing along with all of the information you provide on process and materials and why you use one thing vs another. It's just awe-inspiring to watch you work Julian. Thank you and I am looking forward to the next video!!!
