Multispectral reflectance and UV fluorescence microscopy to study painting’s cross sections

UV Fluorescence microscopy is a powerful mean for visualizing and identifying structures in a specimen, and it has long been used in many applications, including pigment identification in artworks.Typical painting cross section samples are the result ofmultiple layers and especially for paintings produced from thethirteen to sixteencenturies, it is possible that for different pigments a different binder has been used, resulting in a complex stratificationof materials.In this paper we propose a novel multispectral microscopy imaging system, which is specially
