using the doughy part of a loaf of bread removes surface dirt from oil paintings. You simply scrub the painting using gentle pressure, and at the end, remove the bread crumbs using a soft brush. I looked this procedure up for you, and recommend that you check out http://www.biddingtons.com/content/mrscleanpainting.html for more information. Good luck!

Don't. That patina is valuable to collecters... Jeez don't you watch Antique Roadshow or Bob Ross? If you must clean it compressed air is all I would reccomend. Good Luck

my grandmother cleanes hers with a slightly damp cloth and make sure its a soft one and don't rub the painting briskly go over it!
