"The Rijksmuseum, in Amsterdam, has launched an ambitious restoration program. Masterpieces specially selected from their collection will undergo an intensive restoration process to ensure that they shine like never before by the time the museum’s main building re-opens in 2013...The initial results of this work go on display April 21, 2010 in the Philips Wing where the Rijksmuseum will be exhibiting the Radiant Madonnas – three round Italian Renaissance paintings that have been restored with the help of the latest research methods and will be presented as ‘reborn acquisitions from the museum’s own collection’."
