Abstract

This study was carried out on a collection of coloured gravures, which are bound in one book volume entitled “Histoire Naturelle des Perroquets”. This book belongs to the Benaki's Collection of the Hellenic Parliament Library, Athens, Greece. Each page has a coloured print, depicting a different bird species. In most cases, the prints present oxidations caused by the additives used in paper and printing inks manufacture, i.e. fillers, sizing agents, binders, solvents, and other chemical compounds.

By employing microscopic imaging, multispectral imaging, and Scanning Electron Microscopy/Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDS) analysis significant information on the materials used, engraving techniques, as well as the preservation state of the printings studied can be obtained. The combination of the proposed methods yields successful results in identifying the materials used in the colour inks, as well as the paper support of the printings.

将显微成像、多光谱技术和扫描电镜/电子显微镜分析应用于 19 世纪彩色版画研究

这项研究是在一组彩色凹版画上进行的，这些凹版画装订在一本名为 "Histoire Naturelle des Perroquets "的书中。这本书属于希腊雅典希腊议会图书馆的贝纳基收藏。每一页都有一幅彩色版画，描绘了不同的鸟类种类。通过使用显微成像、多光谱成像和扫描电子显微镜/能量色散 X 射线光谱（SEM/EDS）分析，可以获得有关所用材料、雕刻技术以及所研究印刷品保存状态的重要信息。将所建议的方法结合起来，可以成功识别彩色油墨所用的材料以及印刷品的纸张支撑物。
