The results have been astonishing, and Fragonard\u2019s true genius has been revealed. I urge you to visit, look at The Swing<\/em> afresh and fall in love with Fragonard again\u2019 says Director of The Wallace Collection, Dr Xavier Bray. The intricate work was made possible following a grant given by the Bank of America Art Conservation Project.<\/p>\n The painting will be displayed next to the other seven works held by The Wallace Collection in the specially relit galleries from 2nd<\/sup> November. To celebrate the return of The Swing,<\/em> The Wallace Collection will be hosting special events based on the artist and his work, including public talks, a book signing, and a film exploring the influence of Fragonard and the famous painting, as well as the conservation process.<\/p>\n <\/p><\/div> <\/section><\/body><\/html>\n By Molly Malsom Published: Thursday, 18 November 2021 at 12:00 am This month, a famous masterpiece by Jean-Honor\u00e9 Fragonard has gone back on display at The Wallace Collection after undergoing conservation treatment.
