The key is layers the more you do the more the effect you will achieve, look at each area separately, adjusting light/colour/blur etc.
This is just a quick version to show what i mean.
I like it a lot! Please, can you give me some step by step instructions? Thank you so much.I beamed her into 2014 and changed her "look" a bit.
I like a lot your version too. But your second answer is a little bit of a riddle for me (I am not a native English speaker) and I will dare to ask you if you could give me some step by step indications. I am ashamed for not knowing what is that ACR and CC.A huge amount can be done using nothing more than 1 "levels" adjustment layer and ACR (inside of PS in CC).
Spend a bit more time making local adjustments instead of all global adjustments like I did, and you can get an even better final product.Tom
PS - BTW, I intentionally didn't try to reproduce the colors and tonality of 2nd image posted by the OP. Instead, I tried to address his question:
"...my biggest wish is to find/to learn how can I edit an original painting to obtain a more clean and live version..."
in the simplest way I knew.

Tom, I like what you did in your last version except the upper lip.............can't stop making the implied association which is present in all versions but accented in this one. :neutral:
Thanks for the comment, Sam. Initially, I paid no attention to the odd lighting, but after staring at it for a while, I think I have finally figured out the association it triggered in you: Are his initials AH?Tom, I like what you did in your last version except the upper lip.............can't stop making the implied association which is present in all versions but accented in this one. :neutral:
Would you like me to make a preset out of the ACR settings I used? I can then zip it up and post it, and then you can see exactly what I did in ACR.... Maybe I can try it later.
Ovi Sergiu;1533680937... your second answer is a little bit of a riddle for me (I am not a native English speaker) and I will dare to ask you if you could give me some step by step indications. I am ashamed for not knowing what is that ACR and CC. Many many thanks your your kind suggestions and answers. I really appreciate them.[/QUOTE said:Don't be embarrassed - I see abbreviations that I don't know every day on the web.
ACR = Adobe Camera Raw
CC = "Creative Cloud" - the name for Adobe's newest, subscription version of Photoshop.
There are many nice tutorials available on the web about these two things - just Google the two terms. If you still don't understand what I did after you read up on these, feel free to come back and ask.

Umm ... err ...Would you like me to make a preset out of the ACR settings I used? I can then zip it up and post it, and then you can see exactly what I did in ACR. -T
