Rogier van der Weyden ontsluierd
Vanaf 14 juni 2018 wordt De bewening van Christus, (c. 1460-1464) van Rogier van der Weyden voor de ogen van de bezoekers in het Mauritshuis gerestaureerd. Dit gebeurt in een tijdelijk atelier in de tentoonstellingszaal. De restauratie is noodzakelijk omdat de vernis van het schilderij door de jaren heen vergeeld is. Hierdoor komen de heldere kleuren van het kunstwerk minder tot hun recht. Ook worden eerdere, in de loop van de tijd verkleurde, restauraties (retouches) verwijderd. Na de restauratie, die naar verwachting eind 2018 wordt afgerond, is het schilderij weer te bewonderen in zijn oorspronkelijke, stralende kleuren. Beginning June 14, 2018, The Lamentation of Christ (c.1460-1464) by Rogier van der Weyden will be restored in a specially built studio in the exhibition space of the Mauritshuis. The painting needs to be restored, because the painting's varnish has yellowed over the course of many years. As a result, the work’s bright colours no longer come into their own. The treatment will remove previous restorations (retouches), which have also discoloured over time. The restoration, which is expected to be completed at the end of 2018, will reveal the masterpiece’s original, radiant colours.
