The MIA is inviting audiences to weigh in on a conservation dilemma around a Meidert Hobbema painting via their blog.

Modern Art Notes reveals that a week ago the blog post read:

“Does the painting benefit from the removal of the sportsman? Should a paintings conservator mask the 19th century addition of the sportsman (this process is completely reversible)? Or is the figure now part of the painting’s history? Take a look at the ‘before and after’ images above, and enter your vote. We’ll take the results into consideration.”

It now reads:

“Take a look at the ‘before and after’ images above, and enter your vote. We’re interested in your opinion.”
