People look at the original site where the "Allegory of Inclination", top left, a 1616 work by Artemisia Gentileschi, now replaced by a photographic reproduction, before it was removed to undergo restoration, in the Casa Buonarroti Museum, in Florence, Italy, Wednesday, Nov. 9, 2022. Restorers have begun a six-month project on the "Allegory of Inclination" using modern techniques including x-rays and UV infrared research to go beneath the veils painted over the original to cover nudities and discover the work as Gentileschi painted it.
