The picture, from the collection of the Sursock Palace, had been restored by the Getty conservators over the past 3 years and is now part of a special display entitled Artemisia’s Strong Women: Rescuing a Masterpiece highlighting the campaign of work undertaken. The show will run from 10th June until 14th September 2025.
