Abstract:This paper presents an interdisciplinary approach on the preservation status of a manuscript made in the early nineteenth century on paper support. This approach was based on the analysis of the pigments and inks, as well as the damage of the manuscript, which was provoked by biological attack. This analysis was accomplished with the application of innovating techniques such as imaging spectroscopy using high resolution cameras and DNA analysis. The use of new technologies from diverse science can provide usef… Show more
