  • A site-wide and comprehensive assessment of salt-induced tuff deterioration in the Archaeological Park of Herculaneum

    Open AccessSara Puente-Muñoz, Jennifer Huidobro et al.ARTICLEJournal of Cultural Heritage2025References: 2

    First chance to study tuff degradation at the Archaeological Park of Herculaneum. • In-situ Raman and thermographic imaging combined with lab analyses IC and FT-IR. • IC results reveal high soil salt concentrations, suggesting a link to tuff degradation. • Raman spectroscopy revealed complex salts and biomarkers. • Results show how chemical, physical and biological interactions degrade heritage. The Archaeological Park of Herculaneum, buried by t…

  • Analytical study of a newly excavated fine painted ceiling at the Archaeological Park of Pompeii

    Open AccessIlaria Costantini, Marco Veneranda et al.ARTICLEJournal of Cultural Heritage2025References: 2

    In-situ and laboratory analyses on fragmented ceiling in Pompeii’s Regio IX insula . • It displays unique fourth Pompeian style artistry with remarkable chromatic vividness. • Spectroscopic techniques revealed a rich Roman palette in the pigment study. • An unusual execution technique suggest remarkable skill of the painters. • Salt extraction tests showed no harmful compounds damaging the mural actually. This work concerns an in situ and laborat…

  • New excavations at Pompeii: Analyzing the alteration risks of mural paintings recently retrieved from burial

    Open AccessJennifer Huidobro, Marco Veneranda et al.ARTICLEJournal of Cultural Heritage2025

    First chance to study Pompeian paintings’ composition before external contamination. • In-situ Raman, FTIR and XRF analyses were combined with thermographic imaging. • 2 alteration pathways: saline efflorescence and biocolonization. • Heritage conservation benefits from synergy between conservators and scientists. This work reports on a multidisciplinary study conducted by the IBeA Research Group on mural paintings from Pompeii ( Casa dei Pittori…

  • Multianalytical study of neapolitan yellow tuff rotting: Archaeological park of herculaneum as a representative case of study

    Open AccessIñaki Vazquez-De La Fuente, Idoia Etxebarria et al.ARTICLEJournal of Cultural Heritage2025References: 41

    Collaboration of PAERCO, HCP, and IBeA research group on conservation studies. • Identification of rotting in Neapolitan Yellow Tuff using non-destructive analyses. • Discovery: saline humidity causes NYT rotting through salt crystallization. • Sodium sulfate identified as a major threat to NYT conservation efforts. • Preventive measures and portable XRF needed for monitoring historic structures. The eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE buried Her…

  • A multi-analytical approach for the identification of surface whitening phenomena in contemporary oil painting and its application to metal soaps

    Open AccessErika Tarilonte, Oskar González-Mendia et al.ARTICLEJournal of Cultural Heritage2025References: 18

    This research presents a multi-analytical approach for the characterization of the degradation products that form white hazes on paint surfaces. The surface of Untitled (1971), an oil painting by Santos Iñurrieta (1950–2023), one of the most noteworthy contemporary Basque artists, was chosen as a representative example. The appearance of surface whitening phenomena is a major issue in oil painting conservation and their identification represents …

  • A Quantitative Evaluation of Thin Slice Sampling for Parent–Infant Interactions

    Open AccessRomana Burgess, Ilaria Costantini et al.ARTICLEJournal of Nonverbal Behavior2023

    Behavioural coding is time-intensive and laborious. Thin slice sampling provides an alternative approach, aiming to alleviate the coding burden. However, little is understood about whether different behaviours coded over thin slices are comparable to those same behaviours over entire interactions. To provide quantitative evidence for the value of thin slice sampling for a variety of behaviours. We used data from three populations of parent-infant…

  • Identification of pigments and binders of a 17th century mural painting (Bolivia). New report on pigments associated with Andean minerals

    Open AccessEugenia Tomasini, Ilaria Costantini et al.ARTICLEJournal of Cultural Heritage2023

    Research on the materiality of Andean Colonial artistic heritage contributes to the knowledge on the cultural and social history of the region. In this work we present the results of an interdisciplinary and multi-analytical investigation on a mural painting of the church of Curahuara de Carangas in Bolivia. This painting has been hidden for years behind the main 18th century wooden altarpiece. Its stylistic and pictorial characteristics place it…
