The world will be watching as experts carry out the painstaking restoration of one of the planet's most iconic and beloved works of art: Rembrandt's The Night Watch.

The restoration, something that would normally be carried out behind the scenes over several years, will be completed in a public gallery at Amsterdam's Rijksmuseum and broadcast live on the internet to anyone in the world with an interest.

"It will be carried out under the eyes of the world, and people will be able to follow the conservation wherever they are, whenever they want," the museum's general director, Taco Dibbits, told The Guardian newspaper.
