Yes. Even though a restoration may not create a new copyright, it is
absolutely relevant to have full details on the restoration, and to
suggest reusers note the restoration (e.g. "Sir James Foo, 1875,
photographed by Fred Bar, 2009 restoration by Fred Quux") so as to
correctly inform their readers (as well as motivating the restorers).
Indeed; the restoration is part of the provenance of the image.
