The restoration of Eakins' Gross Clinic

Published: July 18, 2010
After a revealing restoration, Thomas Eakins's masterpiece "The Gross Clinic" will go on view at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

While it's not as exciting a painting, the National Gallery of Art has had the Museum's "John Hill Brinton" on loan for almost 50 years and has cleaned it recently. Interesting details showed up and I think there will be an academic article or two on it, if not a NY Times piece.
