1831 J. Constable Let. 4 Dec. (1966) IV. 360 I know very well it can be blotched up, with dry point burr, re~grounding, &c &c, but that is hatefull.
1921 E. R. Pennell & J. Pennell Whistler Jrnl. vii. 80 The prints..were in many places weak. Curiously, Whistler was afraid to re-ground them,..though Lamour..sent Whistler and J. re-grounding rollers for the purpose.
1993 Burlington Mag. Oct. 687/2 The only other occurrence of re-grounding in a painting in this group is the National Gallery, London, Four figures at a table.
