  • Threads of War

    Open AccessDiego Tamburini, Joanne Dyer et al.ARTICLEHeritage2026Referencias: 9

    So-called ‘war rugs’ started being produced in Afghanistan after the Soviet invasion in 1979. These textiles have sparked debate as symbols of resilience and political commentary but also as controversial commodification of human suffering. However, their manufacture and materiality have not been studied so far. In the framework of the British Museum exhibition “War rugs: Afghanistan’s knotted history”, a scientific investigation was conducted on…

  • Studying Saraha

    Open AccessJoanne Dyer, Alice Derham et al.ARTICLEHeritage2022Referencias: 6

    Scientific analyses of the traditional materials and methods in thangka production are uncommon, as thangkas are sacred objects, the sampling of which is discouraged, in order to preserve their integrity. This study builds on this important ethical challenge and presents a three-stage methodology that systematically delves deeper into each layer of the composition, successfully enabling the investigation of different phases of production. In the …

  • Bordering on Asian Paintings

    Open AccessDiego Tamburini, Joanne Dyer et al.ARTICLEHeritage2021Citada por: 4Referencias: 11

    Mount components and textile borders represent important elements of Asian paintings. However, they are often side-lined or not considered an integral part of the original piece, as they may be later additions or may have been replaced during historic conservation or mounting interventions. Nevertheless, evidence is sometimes present that textile borders are contemporaneous to the production of the paintings they frame or, in the case of painting…
