Review content:
Mr.Harrison of Harrison's of London recently restored 4 of my Victorian portraits. Unfortunately due to his very poor quality restoration 3 of the portraits suffered significant amount of permanent and visually distorting damages that caused considerable loss of their value. It was a very devastating experience for the paintings as well as my family. The costs of repairing whatever is possible to repair are astronomical.
Update: 4 conservators evaluated the paintings and reached the same devastating conclusion. The paintings have been damaged beyond any possibility for repair now or ever in the future. The harsh solvents used by Harrison's of London made the original paint layer too soft and sensitive to even very mild solvents. Any attempt to remove the protective varnish and the poor touch up paint in order to perform any type of repairs will also remove the original paint. There are numerous iron impressions, creases and wrinkles visible on the face of the paintings, one has a 10" scar right across the face and a badly repainted nose, the fur collars worn by two of the persons portayed have been totally wiped off.
Harrisons of London did not want to refund the money I paid for the restoration upon my request voluntarely so the matter was taken to court. Although I won, it's a bitter sweet victory because my paintings are lost forever.
Pros: none
Cons: critically bad skills
