Go behind the scenes of the Gallery's Framing Department to explore the frames of some of our most significant paintings, including Sebastiano del Piombo's 'The Raising of Lazarus', and learn how to apply gold leaf with Frame Conservator, Isabella.

Gold shines bright throughout the National Gallery's collection, being used to depict glittering jewellery, extravagant fabrics and golden gifts with gold leaf featuring in both the paintings and the frames themselves. Go behind the scenes at the Gallery to explore how and why artists have used gold throughout the collection with our film series.
