    I love seeing you work on something different. It's not a canvas as you said, but painted nonetheless. People freak out over lead paint. It's real issue is it has a sweet taste that appeals to children. Otherwise, it's not that huge a deal. If it's flaking, deal with that. That conservation was amazing.

    I’m always astounded by the craftsmanship of your work. You perfectly ride the line of restoring the piece but keeping the integrity of the original piece and it’s age. Rather than not cleaning it and slathering on a new coat of paint over the whole thing, you respect what the original piece looked like. I love it!

      The 'staff' is indeed a crozier, and should be turned 90° clockwise, so that the 'open' part of the curve is in the front.
      Look at pictures of bishops during mass.
      The restauration work itself is amazing (as usual on this channel), this is an easy mistake to get right !

    Awesome man... restoration as art... returning a piece to its glory by maintaining a level of respectable patina is reverence to not only the carving and the painter but honors the contribution of time itself.. and the deepest level of such artistry is leaving the piece in such a way that your footprint will only be its continued longevity...
    You are truly a master above masters...

    When I first saw this video in my recommended, I thought "Oh, it's not a painting, I don't want to watch that." It showed up a few times after that and I finally broke down and just clicked on it, thinking "Why not? I'll give it a chance and just see what it is." I think I actually like watching a 3D piece more than the paintings. Paintings are almost always the same thing, but this is refreshingly different. I loved watching him recreate the rake. Thanks for doing something new, Julian!

    I watch another channel that restores old tin/aluminum toys which sometimes have lead paint. He completely removes the paint jobs and reconstructs it after cleaning/repairing the parts. It's very interesting that a piece like this is similar to the tin toys but the execution is drastically different because of the difference in priorities.
    Rescue & Restore is the channel btw

    Edit: I have just completed the video and even though I have been watching them for a few years now. I love that I am still reacting the same when I see the final pictures. "Holy shit" I am still stunned at the amazing transformation. 👏 😍

    Hey Julian, have you heard about the recent floods in Northeast Australia? I've heard of entire art galleries, hundreds of paintings, sculptures, textile works, furniture, and other and artworks, being sent to conservators to deal with the water damage from the floods. Local artworks, local history, even travelling exhibitions on temporary display. Lots of items are simply beyond rescue, especially from Lismore Art Gallery in New South Wales.

    Another great conservation video! Have you tried small squares of either smooth surface blotter paper or even ph neutral artists drawing paper lightly dampened with distilled water to remove the excess residue surrounding your fill in material? You may find that it goes quicker than cotton swabs and will not pull out any material from your filled in areas.
    I have also used this method with lacquer thinner to remove the excess black lacquer on the very shallow numerals and engraving on freshly silver plated antique clock faces.
    It works extremely well and leaves the lacquer or any "fill in" material flush with the surface without pulling any material out. Try it. I know that you enjoy trying out new techniques.
    I have used this also on oil paintings & sometimes with distilled water with a bit of denatured alcohol or isopropyl added to the water. Stay Safe & please keep on making videos. They are so enjoyable to watch and are as flawlessly executed as your amazing work.
