Analytical characterization of academic nude paintings by José Veloso Salgado
Cardeira, A; Longelin, S; Costa, S; Candeias, A; Carvalho, ML; Manso, MThis case study illustrates the analytical characterization of 12 academic nude paintings by Veloso Salgado, made between 1883 and 1893. The study was done with in situ methods (infrared reflectography and EDXRF) and benchtop equipment (Raman and FTIR microscopes and SEM-EDS). Infrared reflectography revealed underdrawings, painting style, execution method and retouched/restored areas. Analytical techniques all...

Multi-analytical characterisation of D’Aprés Cormon by José Veloso Salgado
Cardeira, A; Longelin, S; Costa, S; Candeias, A; Carvalho, ML; Manso, MThis case study reveals the analytical characterisation carried out on ‘D’Aprés Cormon’ (1891) by Veloso Salgado, a copy of ‘Caïn’ (1880) by Fernando Cormon, belonging nowadays to Musée d’Orsay. Infrared Reflectography made in situ revealed underdrawing grid that was used to transpose the original painting to a smaller scale, pictorial style, execution method and retouched/restored areas. In situ EDXRF analysis...
Characterization of glue sizing under calcium carbonate ground layers in Flemis...
Antunes, V; Oliveira, M; Vargas, H; Serrao, V; Candeias, A; Carvalho, ML; Coroado, J; Mirão, J; Dias, L; Longelin, S; Seruya, AIThis work regards the study of painting techniques in Portuguese workshops of the 15th and early 16th centuries, specifically addressing the methodology used on the preparation of ground layers. The influence of Flemish painting in Portugal is evident in stylistic and iconographic themes of that period. As regards the painting materials, we confirmed that this influence also extended to the ground layer techniq...
Characterization of gypsum and anhydrite ground layers in 15th and 16th centuri...
Antunes, V; Candeias, A; Oliveira, ML; Longelin, S; Serrão, V; SEruya, AI; Coroado, J; Dias, L; Mirão, J; Carvalho, MLThe purpose of this work is to characterize Portuguese painting ground layers from the 15th and 16th centuries (1450–1600), focusing particularly on the Coimbra, Lisbon, and Viseu workshops. Calcium sulfate, used regularly in these layers is common in the Iberian Peninsula as a natural resource. Its use is now confirmed, as already studied in Spanish paintings, and it was prepared generally by addition of anima...
GREGÓRIO LOPES painting workshop: characterization by X-ray based techniques. A...
Antunes, V; Candeias, A; Oliveira, MJ; Manso, M; Seruya, AI; Coroado, J; Dias, L; Mirao, J; Longelin, S; Serrão, VGreg´orio Lopes is one of the most famous Portuguese painters of the 15th–16th centuries. This work is a contribution to the study of his painting technique, specifically addressing the methodology used in the preparation of ground layers, which has never been carried out previously with this multianalytical method. For this purpose characterization of the ground layers of a selection of his paintings was carri...
