In 1921 Henry E. Huntington paid more for The Blue Boy than any painting in world history for his Art Gallery in San Marino, CA. It went through a restoration from Sept. 22, 2018 to March 26, 2020. It is magnificently beautiful. Restoration video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrbHKTAr2SM&t=76s Curators lecture: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HOFDIJNxCM
