I'd say it's because in the raw scan, the whole thing has a bit of a tint, so it looks more uniform but mainly I'd say it's because in the raw footage neither of the three layers has true blacks, whereas in the restoration, the foreground elements do have much darker blacks than the painting, which makes it look more fake (you could argue it's supposed to mimic atmospheric distortion but it's too different to look real).
