Britta New shows how science and new technology improve our understanding of the changes that were made to Rubens's 'Judgement of Paris' over its lifetime. Using non-invasive imaging techniques, including XRF scanning, today, we can see the changes Rubens himself made to the composition and size of his picture, as well as the effects of more recent conservation treatment. Britta tells us how, armed with this new information, she was able to work on a painting that has so much history wrapped up in its panels and paint. Funding for the conservation of Peter Paul Rubens's 'The Judgement of Paris' (1577 - 1640) was generously provided through a grant from the Bank of America Art Conservation Project. 🎨 Find out more about Peter Paul Rubens's 'The Judgement of Paris': 🎨 Find out more about Peter Paul Rubens: 🎞 Subscribe to our YouTube channel and never miss a video: Follow us on social media ⭐️ Instagram: ⭐️ TikTok: @nationalgallerylondon ⭐️ Facebook: ⭐️ Threads: @nationalgallery ⭐️ Twitter: Help keep the museum accessible for everyone by supporting us here: The world's greatest paintings to your inbox.
