The only thing is with textured oil paintings it can kill the surface texture so you lose that 3D effect. Just back off the lens polarizer a bit.
Dear Frank
The above needs to be tempered with considerable caution because very likely you will find any highlights and bright areas will take on a strong purple colour....not good!
You often see this in photographs of oil paintings where the photographer has failed to totally cross polarise the lighting.
