| Popis: | The Fine Arts Museum in Seville conserves an especially wide group of paintings from the 16th century Spanish art, among which one of the highest importance is a triptych attributed to Marten de Vos. One of the panels was recently restored, which opened a possibility for its material and technical analysis. For this research, only non-destructive techniques have been used: ultraviolet light, infrared reflectography, and X-ray fluorescence. The ultraviolet exam showed wide areas of later interventions, which were confirmed by X-ray fluorescence results. By infrared reflectography it was possible to observe under-drawings and some pentimenti. The X-ray fluorescence results identified inorganic pigments, common for that period of time: lead white, yellow, and red ochres, lead¿tin yellow, vermilion, a green copper based pigment, azurite, smalt as De Vos's basic blue pigment, umber, and an organic black pigment, probably bone black.
