PhD researchers Anthony Bourached (UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology) and George Cann (UCL Space and Climate Physics), working with artist Jesper Eriksson, used cutting edge technology to recreate a long-concealed Van Gogh painting.<br \/><br \/>It\u2019s the latest in their \u201cNeoMasters\u201d series of recreations, a project they\u2019ve been working on since 2019 to bring lost works of art to life. <br \/><br \/>They developed a process to recreate lost works that uses x-ray imaging to see through every layer of paint, AI to extrapolate the artist\u2019s style, and 3D printing to fabricate the final piece. <br \/><br \/>This newest effort, dubbed \u201cThe Two Wrestlers,\u201d depicts two shirtless wrestlers grappling in front of an abstract background. It recreates a painting originally by Van Gogh who covered over the two figures when he reused the canvas for an unrelated painting of flowers.<br \/><br \/>Commenting Bourached, who is researching Machine Learning and Behavioural Neuroscience at UCL, said: \u201cHow much it is like the original painting is impossible to tell at this point because the information doesn\u2019t exist. I think it\u2019s very convincing &#8211; by far the best guess we can get with current technology.\u201d<br \/><br \/>The obscured image was first discovered in 2012 when art experts at the University of Antwerp investigated whether the work \u201cStill Life with Meadow Flowers and Roses\u201d was an authentic Van Gogh. The researchers examining the artwork used X-rays to peer through the layers of paint and discovered two ghostly figures that had been painted over. <br \/><br \/>The covered-over wrestlers displayed brush strokes and pigments that were consistent with Van Gogh, and the subject matter was also a common theme at the Antwerp Art Academy where Van Gogh was studying in 1886, authenticating the work. <br \/><br \/>\u201cThis week I painted a large thing with two nude torsos \u2014 two wrestlers\u2026 and I really like doing that,\u201d Van Gogh wrote in a letter to his brother Theo in January of 1886. <br \/><br \/>Using similar image analysis and fabrication techniques, the team was able to resurrect other images that had been considered lost for many years. In 2021, the team first recreated a painted-over image of a crouching nude woman beneath the painting. <br \/>\u201cThe Blind Man\u2019s Meal\u201d by Pablo Picasso. <br \/><br \/>\u201cThe Two Wrestlers\u201d is being displayed at the Louvre in Paris from 1 to 4 September at the FOCUS Art Fair, alongside three other NeoMasters works, including ones recreating works by Leonardo Da Vinci and Amedeo Modigliani. The exhibition is being put on in conjunction with the MORF Gallery in California and the researcher\u2019s company Oxia Palus.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>X-rays, AI and 3D printing bring a lost Van Gogh artwork to life.
