HI
  Fixed distorted pixel and mainly the reflection to bring the details back.
It might be caused because of the material used in the old photograph. Tried to preserve the original details as much as possible and patched accordingly. Brought noticeable detail back and some to grandma's hair structure, grandpa's eye details also. As you can see, there are some minute details are present like the chair's reflection. I didn't touch up the right leg portion of grandpa, you can see the reflection of the folds and there is something else also there. Do you have any idea? is it reflections of the folds only or the other end of the chair? I just want to make sure of it. This is the 1st set of a process which took longer than I expected. Needed second round for the fine tune of facial and eye structure, which will take more time. This is what I can do for the moment. Sorry.

Hi you have done a great job and the photograph is looking much better.  I see the structure you are referring to and it  is definitely the leg of the chair.  I appreciate that you have spent a considerable amount of  time improving it on what has already been achieved by others.  A grand job.  Thank you so much.
