Who's repairing the murals?

Theodore, who operates a private studio in Baltimore, specializes in the conservation of American and European paintings executed in oil and tempera media, on wood, fabric and metal supports; and the conservation of Greek and Russian icons and iconostases in Eastern Orthodox churches.
