Painter Sighard Gille stands with his daughter Maja and granddaughter at his ceiling painting "Gesang vom Leben" in Gewandhaus in Leipzig, Germany, 25 February 2012. The painting was created on the sloping ceiling of the foyer between 1980 and 1981 and is 714 square meters large and 31.80 meters high. The restoration of water damage to the painting caused renovations to the roof in 2009 and the resulting financing of the restoration is still unresolved after many months, but a decision is to be made in the next days. 71 year artist Sighard Gille would like to restore his painting alone.
