May 24 - St Petersburg Tour of the Hermitage Museum Danae - Rembrandt The painting is sadly known for the attack it suffered in 1985 when a Soviet visitor threw sulfuric acid on the canvas before cutting it twice with a knife. The painting was left seriously damaged, and it took over 12 years to restore. Although the restoration works are impressive, you can still see a blur around the feet that was impossible to fix. |
