We read this story in Art Daily a while ago about the restoration of Vincent Van Gogh's painting "The Bedroom," which is being blogged about regularly, but we hate to link to a blog until it has at least a couple of posts up. By this point, there's plenty to read on the site, which is amusingly titled "Bedroom secrets," from discussion of the preliminary examination of the painting to sources on it (previous versions, a letter Van Gogh wrote about it to his brother Theo) to consideration of the most frequently used materials in painting. It's a neat way to approach a highly technical subject.
