- Abstract
- The St. Euthymius wall paintings, in the Cathedral of Thessaloniki,
dated 1303 AD., are stylistically attributed to the School of
Panselinos, one of the most important painters of Palaeologean Art.
An in situ non-invasive study has been carried out as part of a MOLAB
project (a mobile laboratory accessible through the Eu-ARTECH project,
funded by the EC 6th FP) combining different analytical techniques such
as XRF, mid-FTIR and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. It was
during this comprehensive in situ study that certain scientific queries
were raised about sensitive areas, where indications of the phenomena
of decay requested further attention. A subsequent laboratory study of
selected cross-sections using microscopic analysis with mu FTIR,
SEM-EDS and mu Raman, further confirmed the identification of only the
atypical in situ observations.
The comparative interpretation of all respective results on the
specific regions of interest permitted the identification of several
degradation phenomena which justify certain aesthetic or stylistic
incoherences in the representations. Namely, (i) thermal dehydration of
the yellow ochre explaining the reddish appearance of the flesh tones
and halos as an accidental effect of the fire; (ii) thermal degradation
of azurite converted to tenorite explaining the atypical instance of
dark lightings on the purple garments; (iii) degradation of red lead
employed in the lightings of the red garments; (iv) widespread presence
of oxalates in the paint surface. (literal)
