Integrating expert feedback on the spot in a time-efficient explorative CT scanning workflow for cultural heritage objects
Computed Tomography (CT) has proven itself as a powerful technique for analysing the internal structure of cultural heritage objects. The process followed by conservators and technical art historians for investigating an object is explorative: each time a new question is asked based on the outcome of the previous investigation. This workflow however conflicts with the static nature of CT imaging, where the planning, execution and image analysis f…
A non-invasive imaging approach for improved assessments on the construction and the condition of historical knotted-pile carpets
The appraisal of the design and the weaving structure of Islamic knotted-pile carpets can tell plenty about the context in which they were produced, and the identification of signs of deterioration can help to establish their condition. These are often somewhat imprecise and laborious examinations, especially when considering carpets of large dimensions. Analytical methods that support these disciplines urge further exploration so that improved i…
Micro‐invasive method for studying lead isotopes in paintings
A micro‐invasive technique is presented that enables pigment sampling from individual layers of a painting cross‐section by obtaining a furrow 10–50 μm wide of chosen length. Combined with increased sensitivity of lead (Pb) isotope analysis using multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (MC‐ICPMS) equipped with a 10 13 Ω resistor or a Pb double‐spike technique, the amount of Pb needed for isotopic analysis is drastically reduce…

Réflexion | Valérie Nègre On sourit aujourd’hui de la réponse que Bernard Berenson fit au journaliste qui lui demandait si Mona Lisa était peinte sur bois ou sur toile (« Je n’en sais rien ») et au commentaire qu’il crut nécessaire d’ajouter : « c’est comme si vous me demandiez sur quel papier Shakespeare écrivit ses immortels sonnets ». L’intérêt croissant pour l’« histoire des choses » (history of things) et la « culture matérielle » (material …
Early Production Recipes for Lead Antimonate Yellow in Italian Art
Lead antimonate yellow, or Naples Yellow, is one of the most common yellow pigments in Western European art. It was used mainly in the period from 1500 to 1850. During the 18th and 19th centuries, a whole range of production recipes was published. However, the early production history of the pigment is not well understood. In this paper, a study of two early production recipes is reported. Under the nomenclature of potters’ yellow, the recipes de…
