Rembrandt Damaged by Vandal Being Restored

A Rembrandt masterpiece, damaged by an acid-throwing vandal at the Hermitage museum in Leningrad, is undergoing restoration by art experts, Pravda said Thursday.

Experts initially feared that the painting, “Diana Is Saved”, had been damaged beyond recognition.

“Today, one can say with confidence that people who live in Leningrad and those who come to visit the city will be able to see the work of the great master made in 1636 in its place again,” the Communist Party said.
