Ancestors Painting Restoration

A beautiful artwork created using pigment ink on cotton suffering from mould and some general paint fading across the work. This was from a private collector living in a beautiful 4 storey shophouse in Singapore.

We helped to clean and remove the mould whilst also touching up the areas of paint loss and fading where appropriate. Below is a few select images to show the condition before and after the restoration work.

Before

You can see the heavy mould present in this photograph, especially on the gentleman on the far right, the 3 hats, and the black outfit on the left.

Completed work

The finished work is substantially more vibrant and has had all of the mould and dust completely removed. The client was delighted with the results and requested for us to repair a second work in a similar style.
