The conservation and restoration of a painting in a historic and isolated Chapel has made the news over in Malta. The Return from Egypt, a copy of a known work by the artist Giovanni Battista Paggi, has been on display in a Chapel on the Isle of Comino in Malta. The conservation work was funded by the Bank of Valletta.

A video featuring interviews with the conservators, showing some images of the work during the process, can be found by following the link.
