The scientific analyses carried out by physical and chemical methods on works of art and Cultural Heritage are of great interest to restorers, conservators, archaeologists and historians, as they allow obtaining information about the artworks their creative processes, state of conservation, hidden designs, materials used, etc. This information can also help in evaluations and treatments for conservation, restoration, art history study, authenticity process, etc.

​

The analysis methods that were used include imaging processes, vibrational methods, and nuclear atomic techniques to identify organic and inorganic materials. In addition, analyses are performed “in situ”, without the need to remove artworks from museums and collections.

​

The analytical techniques used in the studies are non-destructive, as there is no sampling, a relevant fact due to the high historical and cultural value of the artworks.
