Working Late

Since I've been in Venice, a number of works in the museum have been in the town of Vercelli for an exposition called Peggy Guggenheim and Surrealist Imagery. This week the works returned home and a few of us interns got involved in the re-installation of a number of paintings. Dr. Rylands was, of course, there to oversee everything and he gave me permission to photograph the process!
