I thought it would be nice to illustrate the side topic this thread has taken.

This is a painting, I believe, is called the "Hatman", I am not sure who the artist is. This illustrates how the paintings turn yellow or darken over the years.

I am not sure if this is caused by the artist varnish or if they did in fact use a medium with their oil. Of course in the way old days, this might not have been the problem, since they mixed their own paint - maybe they just weren't good at this.

The "Hatman" before restoration.
