You never know what you'll find when opening up an old picture framing! In this short, one minute video, Monica Mull of Art CPR conservation studio reveals hidden writing on the back side of an original watercolor illustration for one of Ludwig Bemelmans' classic and beloved children's books. The illustration on watercolor paper was glued to a cardboard backing. (very bad!) As Monica slowly and carefully removes the cardboard backing inch by inch, letters begin to appear. What did Ludwig write on the back of his artwork? Watch the video to find out.
