Critics have hailed the museum's restoration of the fresco as a triumph. That verdict is mistaken. In stripping away centuries of overpainting, the restorers also removed the artist's own final glazes - layers that chemical analysis had confirmed to be original. The colors now on display are brighter and flatter than anything the painter actually produced. A restoration that discards the artist's own handiwork does not deserve to be called a triumph.
Which one of the following most accurately expresses the main conclusion of the argument?
- Removing later overpainting is sufficient for any restoration to deserve acclaim as a triumph.
- The museum's restoration of the fresco does not deserve to be acclaimed as a triumph.
- Chemical analysis had confirmed that the final glazes were the artist's own work.
- The restorers removed the artist's original final glazes along with the overpainting.
- The fresco's colors are now brighter and flatter than the painter's originals.
