In science applied to cultural heritage, the study of manufacturing procedures ancient metal artifacts is particular relevance. fact, correlated with development civilization. The aim this work reconstruct, by means experimental archeology, soldering and welding processes, in order identify them archeological samples using a portable micro X‐ray fluorescence (micro‐XRF) system. This nondestructive technique provides useful method for characterizing gold jewelry. Various alloys were produced...
This work arises in response to the need understand production techniques of pre‐roman gold jewels, starting from systematic characterization different methods metal joining used antiquity produce these objects. To meet this requirement, procedures were reproduced by means experimental archaeology. These models correspond three metal‐joining reported ancient recipes: solid‐state diffusion with copper salt, brazing and autogenous welding. studied analytical order characterize them at both...
Abstract Several medieval paintings and polychrome sculptures have been analysed in the frame of a collaboration between Fine Arts Museum Seville National Centre Accelerators, dedicated to non‐destructive study artworks that belong wide museum’s collection. Among oldest collection is panel painting Archangel St. Michael attributed Juan Hispalense, one first painters 15th‐century known by name. The was portable X‐ray fluorescence (XRF) get more information about pigments applied identify...
During the recent restoration of two large‐dimension paintings by Murillo, entitled “Miracle loaves and fishes” “Moses water from rock Horeb,” several studies about materials employed for their execution were carried out. Macro X‐ray fluorescence scanning technique was performed on both works complemented point stratigraphic analyses, in order to characterize different components (i.e., ground layer, pigments, binders). The results allowed us better elucidate Murillo painting his creative...
