Popis: | Technical examination allied to the conservation treatment of Virgin Surrounded by Flowers provided a deep knowledge to the main questions posed by this painting: Which materials (pigments, fillers and mediums) are present at the Virgin Surrounded by Flowers? Did van Kessel follow the painting practice documented on 17th century treatises? Is this work a collaboration of artists regulated by the Antwerp Guild? If it is a collaboration of artists, which artists participated? To answer these questions it was required several exams and analytical methods such as: ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) photography, IR reflectography, radiography, optical microscopy (OM), staining tests, gas chromatography, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry (SEM-EDX), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), to further supplement the technical evidence from the painting. |
