Leonardo da Vinci’s Ginevra de' Benci
To further our understanding of Leonardo da Vinci’s painting practices, a new scientific research study was conducted on Ginevra de' Benci, c. 1474/1478. More information about the preparatory underdrawing, undermodeling, and palette was obtained. The new analysis included multispectral infrared reflectography at high spatial resolution (50 μm per pixel) in three spectral bands between 1000 and 2500 nm. These high-resolution infrared images were …

Non-Invasive Technical Investigation of English Portrait Miniatures Attributed to Nicholas Hilliard and Isaac Oliver
This study presents the results of the technical investigation carried out on several English portrait miniatures painted in the 16th and 17th century by Nicholas Hilliard and Isaac Oliver, two of the most famous limners working at the Tudor and Stuart courts. The 23 objects chosen for the analysis, spanning almost the entire career of the two artists, belong to the collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum (London) and the Fitzwilliam Museum…
The Choir Books of San Giorgio Maggiore in Venice
This paper discusses a cross-disciplinary, international collaboration aimed at researching a series of 15th century choir books at the abbey of San Giorgio Maggiore on the homonymous island in Venice. Produced for the abbey itself, the books have never left the island during their 500-year history, thereby allowing a unique opportunity to analyse historic artefacts, which have undergone little modification over time. Prompted by ongoing catalogu…
Adaptive approach of thermal comfort and correlation between experimental data and mathematical model in some schools and traditional buildings of Madagascar under natural ventilation
A detailed study of climate change and some vulnerabilities in Indian Ocean
Characterisation of colourants on illuminated manuscripts by portable fibre optic UV-visible-NIR reflectance spectrophotometry
The use of ultraviolet and visible diffuse reflectance spectrophotometry as a preliminary technique in the investigation of illuminated manuscripts is discussed. Because ancient manuscripts are amongst the most fragile and precious artworks, characterisation of the materials used in their decoration should be performed using non-invasive analytical methods. Ultraviolet and visible reflectance spectrophotometry with optical fibres (FORS) allows no…
A non-invasive study of Roman Age mosaic glass tesserae by means of Raman spectroscopy
Firing techniques of black slipped pottery from Nepal (12th–3rd century B.C.)
Areas and limits of employment of portable EDXRF equipment for in situ investigations
The use of mobile spectrometers in the archaeometric study of ancient artefacts has become a very common practice over the past few years. It docs open methodological questions on the employment of such techniques in a non-destructive manner, i.e. avoiding the damage of the artifact. Some additional methodological questions come by (i) the use of such instrumentation for diagnostic scopes (in which a different approach to the measurement is requi…
