Night Watch - Rembrandt by ingrid01

Night Watch - Rembrandt

When my son was doing his soccer camp, my daughter and I explored Amsterdam. First stop was the Rijksmuseum.
This is the Night Watch by Rembrandt and it was undergoing a full "body-scan". One scan took 24 hours and there were 56 scans needed to finish the whole painting. With the information from the scans they hope to be able to restore and preserve the painting for many more years.
This painting “body scan” is something I’ve never heard of. Will have to Google it! The painting is wonderful.
