Rembrandt's 'The Night Watch' is Restored by Artificial Intelligence

Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn is famous for his extensive oeuvre of art, which includes sketches, prints, and paintings. Among the many masterpieces within his portfolio is a particularly ambitious piece that has impressed audiences with its scale and detail centuries after the painter's death--The Night Watch (1642). This lifesize group portrait is one of the most influential pieces from the Dutch Golden Age and, since 2019, has been the subject of an extensive restoration by the Rijksmuseum called Project Night Watch. Last year, Project Night Watch released an extremely detailed--and completely free-to-download --44.8 gigapixel image of Rembrandt's masterpiece. Recently, the museum unveiled another incredible feat.
