Excerpt from The Torrigiani Academy In the domain of Art there is an unsuspected treasure land wherein success, fame and riches are waiting to be grasped. It is almost virgin soil waiting for prospectors to come and stake claims. From time to time the untrained and inexperienced venture to go delving there, but they fail because they are ill-equipped. This comparatively unexplored field is the art of restoration and conservation of the great masters' works, and a life-long experience of this special branch of art has invested me with unique qualifications to lead an expedition of ambitious and seriously disposed art students to claim the prizes which it offers.
