La récente restauration (2011-2013) a permis de dégager, sous un badigeon ocre de l'époque moderne, des restes notables de la polychromie originale du xiii e siècle ; ces restes sont localisés avant tout sur le tympan et les archivoltes. Afin d'obtenir une idée fiable de l'aspect initial des sculptures, trois des statues du portail Royal-dont la polychromie est bien conservée-ont été numérisées par photogrammétrie. Ces modèles ont ensuite été colorés sur la base des résultats des analyses physico-chimiques. L'une de ces trois statues (et son modèle numérique 3D) est présentée ici de façon détaillée.

La technique du brocart applique, par exemple, est utilisee pour imiter la richesse des tissus des personnages importants. Aujourd’hui, ces decors ont souvent disparu et seule subsiste la couche adhesive composee d’un liant organique. La fluorescence de ces liants sous lumiere ultraviolette a ete utilisee pour detecter les traces de ces decors sur une quinzaine de sites dans le Sud-Ouest de la France. Les resultats d’analyse soulignent la variete et l’evolution des techniques de dorure (au sens large) entre le XIe et le XVIe siecle. Le choix du type de dorure est oriente par des considerations symboliques, economiques, techniques, la volonte de hierarchiser les scenes ou par souci de realisme.

For better knowledge of these miniatures, the pigments and dyes have been analyzed in ten illuminations chosen in order to represent the diversity of the collection. The aim of this study is to establish a panorama of the pigments and techniques used in medieval miniatures through the study of a set of manuscripts and to discuss the potentialities of the analytical techniques in order to reach this objective. Hyperspectral imaging is a rapid, mobile and noninvasive technique. It gives reflectance spectra for each pixel of the image. The datacube obtained was treated in order to visualize images and reflectance spectra. The software allows the mapping of the pigments by comparing spectra with those of our database. As some interpretation difficulties can appear for dyes or mixtures, to confirm the identification, point techniques such as Raman, X-ray spectroscopy, and Fiber Optic Reflectance Spectroscopy in the Near Infrared range were used. Analyses allowed access to the palette for each illumination and showed the colours diversity and pigments treatment. They increase knowledge about the materials used and the evolution of them during the time period: the use of dyes and shell gold became more important at the end of the period. The analytical choice respects the fragility and preciousness of these artworks and helps the fast data acquisition for the materials identification.

Research paper thumbnail of Comparison between non-invasive methods used on paintings by Goya and his contemporaries: hyperspectral imaging vs. point-by-point spectroscopic analysis

In this sense, the usefulness of hyperspectral imaging was demonstrated. It allows pigment characterization of the whole painting. However, it also sometimes requires the complementation of other point-by-point techniques. In the present article, the advantages of hyperspectral imaging over point-by-point spectroscopic analysis were evaluated. For that purpose, three paintings were analysed by hyperspectral imaging, handheld X-ray fluorescence and handheld Raman spectroscopy in order to determine the best non-invasive technique for pigment identifications. Thanks to this work, the main pigments used in Aragonese artworks, and especially in Goya's paintings, were identified and mapped by imaging reflection spectroscopy. All the analysed pigments corresponded to those used at the time of Goya. Regarding the techniques used, the information o...

Research paper thumbnail of Wall Paintings in the Château de Germolles: An Interdisciplinary Project for the Rediscovery of a Unique Fourteenth-Century Decoration

Situated in Burgundy, France, Germolles is the best preserved residence of the Dukes of Burgundy and was listed as a monument of national importance in 1989.
The medieval wall decoration of the Château de Germolles was rediscovered under the nineteenth-century plasters during World War II. Medieval accounts of the château provide a detailed list of the materials acquired to make the mural decoration, but this list is incongruous when compared with the current appearance of the paintings. The discrepancy between the archival and material evidence, and also the need to understand the complexity of the painting technique used were the main motivations for undertaking the case study described in this chapter. Imaging alongside more traditional examination techniques were utilized to record and document the mural decoration. The objectives of the case study were to distinguish the original materials from those applied during restoration, identify those materials, and correlate them with the archives. We also tried to understand the medieval painting techniques used and assess the condition of the paintings and stabilization requirements. Finally we aimed to find a sustainable solution for the management of the various types of data collected. Various techniques and investigations offered valuable insights into the materials and the painting technique used. To improve visitor experience, based on the information gained in the course of this study, a 3D virtual representation of the original decoration is currently proposed for display to the public visiting the Château de Germolles.
