| Περιγραφή: | Conservation of artworks is a fundamental aspect of the immensity of human culture and artistic expression. Two watercolor were examined: Paisaje con casa campesina and El puente, belonging to the collection of the Central Bank of Costa Rica attributed to the national artist Fausto Pacheco Hernández. Particularly, the exclusive approach to explore these artworks is characterized by being a multiple analysis, where non-invasive techniques such as multispectral photography were applied. Based on this technique along with the use of novel computational tools such as RegionsOfInterest and Golden Artists Colors, information about the artist's pictorial palette and creative process was determined. Multiple analysis also allowed identifying areas of interest such as dark spots and other patterns that could be associated with microbial growth. This pioneering study is the starting point to establish indicators that will allow, to evaluate the possible authenticity of these artworks based on the establishment of the artist's pictorial palette, materials used, creative processes and historical context. The application of science to know the characteristics of materials contributes significantly to determining the most efficient way to preserve cultural heritage. |
