A pair of 400-year-old portraits were separated for nearly two centuries, and are now held in two different collections: The Barber Institute of Fine Arts and the Devonshire Collections at Chatsworth.

Larry Keith, the Head of Conservation, meets Alice Martin from Chatsworth House to discuss how the conservation team conserved these two marriage portraits by Frans Hals, bringing them together for 'The Credit Suisse Exhibition: Frans Hals'.
