Episode Details

Conservators are painstakingly restoring Paul Burlin’s modernist masterpieces, some sliced, faded, and rolled into brittle scrolls, taking two years to clean just seven canvases.

With meticulous care and collaboration across disciplines, they balance science with soul, ensuring these treasures endure for generations.
