  • A bid to restore a 19th century fresco (Ecce Homo) in a Spanish church has gone horribly wrong, with Jesus transformed into something out of Planet of the Apes.

    But surely that elderly women knew it was a historical, valuable painting. And obviously means a lot to the painters family too. Couldn't she respect that? Didnt even ask for permission to do that...I just dont understand how anyone could even "attempt to restore" a painting if youre not a qualified painter.

      Pork Cutlet i assume you are good at frescoes. They are notoriously difficult. You have to paint on top of moist plaster and you try to finish it before the plaster sets. It may not have been a Michaelangelo but it was a good example of its kind.

    Poor lady. She didn't know that restoring a painting meant 'touching it up.' Technically, all she had to do was fill in the spots that no longer had paint. The restoration would have been a wonderful project for advanced art students who live in the area.

    I'm just curious HOW the hell did she figure out she could do it? WHERE is that bottom scroll thing in the original? Was she actually painting over the old stuff, just making stuff up, or using some sort of kitchen cleaner to "clean" it? I'm actually very interested in HOW she did this.
    In any case, awesome Chewbacca rendering :)
