Cupid[edit]

According to the ongoing restoration, the overpainted Cupid has not been behind the curtain, but left to it. See [1] (second image, scroll down). Changed this. Museum director Koja thinks the overpainter might have intended to make the painting look more like a Rembrandt, which would have increased its value. —MBq (talk) 05:06, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

MBq and others, I switched the images in info box and the Composition Section of this article. The info box now shows the restored painting and the caption indicates that. I added 2 sources and quoted from them regarding this major restoration. After I did my edits, I saw the section about the restoration; that is a result of doing edits on the phone, it is harder to see other sections as edits can be done one section at a time, not the whole article at once. I think there is some duplication now, yet some new and relevant material in the Composition section. Is the text in Composition acceptable or is there too much duplication of the restoration section? The images had to be switched, as the old, altered painting is visible only in photos now. Further, will any of the excellent technical discussions need changing, given this change from the restoration? The hidden section was hidden for about 300 years, such a long time. - - Prairieplant (talk) 17:14, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
