This is a painting created by the Spanish painter, Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, titled, "The Immaculate Conception of Los Venerables," a portrait of the Virgin Mary that was painted in 1678. The piece is from the Baroque period and has since been restored to keep it in tact. Well, you wont believe it but, it's been restored more than once, and today, a fix job for the original failed restoration was released. -
