Picture: The National Gallery, London

The National Gallery in London have revealed on Twitter that Thomas Gainsborough's Cornard Wood has been conserved and redisplayed in the galleries. The picture was last cleaned during World War Two, and at a glance it seems the most recent campaign seems to have had a rather nice harmonising effect on the colours and shadowing.
