Two African Boys
My latest client collected a group of family photos on a visit to Africa, and sent them to me to restore.
As you can see, this wonderful photo of two little boys is badly damaged and aged.
It is about 40 years old so it has yellowed and up close, there are numerous cracks, both serious and fine.
The work took 4-5 hours total, because of the level of detailed work necessary to remove every crack, and repaint areas which were missing completely. I also scanned it at a high enough resolution that the final image could be reprinted at 5×7 inches, and be a treasure to both men’s children.
