A unique 19th century Dutch panoramic painting undergoes a three-month restoration. Painted by the 19th-century Dutch master Hendrik Willem Mesdag from 1880 to 1881, the masterpiece gives visitors a 360-degree view of the beach at Scheveningen, a famous seaside suburb of The Hague, creating the illusion that the viewer is standing right in the middle of the scene.
