This volume, a friendly-consulting handbook, stems from professionals involved in the European project EU-ARTECH to address a particular need in the field of scientific analyses applied to cultural heritage conservation.
The handbook is specifically addressed to conservator-restorers to illustrate the role played by scientific examinations in the investigation of panel and canvas paintings by explaining some analytical techniques - what they are and why they are used, what are their limits, and what kind of effects/results they are expected to supply.
