Description

This volume continues the National Gallery s acclaimed series of Technical Bulletins with a selection of studies across the range of the collection, jointly authored by experts in the field of conservation and the scientific examination of paintings. Contributions include an account of the development of the composition of "The Virgin Adoring the Child with Saint Joseph" by Fra Bartolommeo (1472? 1517), and the painting s relationship to other works; a study of underdrawing practices in three flower paintings by Paulus Theodorus van Brussel (1754 1795); a critical reassessment of six landscape paintings by Charles-Francois Daubigny (1817 1878); a material comparison of the two most closely linked "Sunflower" paintings by Vincent van Gogh (1853 1890); and the findings of the latest technical examination, including new X-ray fluorescence mapping results, of two portraits by Francisco de Goya (1746 1828), "Don Andr"e"s del Peral" and "The Duke of Wellington.""
