No, go back in history.

The original artist probably thought the work would be viewed in a well lit area, and was not thinking conservation lighting.

Plus, colors fade, smoke stains and other contamination change the vision.

Even today, our plum exterior trim turns to red in California.

When Whistler finished the painting & she stood up, he said,

“Mother, you’re off your rocker!”
