Bowes Museum's 'hidden' painting to be revealed on BBC's Culture Show
11:17am Tuesday 5th March 2013 in News By Stuart Laundy, Reporter (Barnard Castle & Teesdale)
PAINTING REVEALED: A County Durham museum is to feature in the BBC's Culture Show this weekend.
Cameras visited The Bowes Museum, Barnard Castle, for a programme on hidden paintings in the collections of museums and other public buildings.
One such painting at The Bowes Museum, and the story behind it, will be revealed when the programme is screened on BBC2 at 5.30pm on Saturday, March 9.
The museum will receive further television coverage later this year when a documentary about automata is aired on BBC4 in early summer, featuring the unique, life-size Silver Swan musical automaton.
