We are delighted to share with you the latest publication about the development of craquelure patterns in panel paintings that is now available in the Heritage Science journal!
Our colleagues built a 3D model of panel painting with a cracked pictorial layer of gesso and oil paint or tempera paint to investigate how the presence of craquelure pattern and sub-surface defects in gesso affect the surface stresses in paintings.
Congratulations to our colleagues!
This research was carried out within the GRIEG-Craquelure project (2019/34/H/HS2/00581), which has received funding from the Norway Grants 2014-2021 in cooperation with NCN National Science Centre Poland.
Dedicated to advancing heritage science, enhancing the preservation and interpretation of material culture
