Book Description
For a long time questions surrounding the many versions of paintings by Guido Reni have been the centre of a scholarly debate which still continues. Are these 'originals', 'copies', or workshop pieces created under Reni's supervision? The Saint Sebastians on display in this exhibition - the paintings at Dulwich and Genoa will appear alongside another four examples of the subject from the Pinacoteca Capitolina in Rome, the Museo del Prado in Madrid, the Museo de Arte de Ponce (Puerto Rico), and the Auckland Art Gallery (New Zealand) - should be seen, instead, under a different light. The authors present the scholarly views that have produced strikingly diverse conclusions, providing details about the provenance of the works, their condition, and the results of technical analysis to further help the direct comparison offered by this exhibition.

Book Description
Bridging the fields of conservation, art history, and museum curating, this volume contains the principal papers from an international symposium titled "Historical Painting Techniques, Materials, and Studio Practice" at the University of Leiden in Amsterdam, Netherlands, from June 26 to 29, 1995. The symposium—designed for art historians, conservators, conservation scientists, and museum curators worldwide—was organized by the Department of Art History at the University of Leiden and the Art History Department of the Central Research Laboratory for Objects of Art and Science in Amsterdam. Twenty-five contributors representing museums and conservation institutions throughout the world provide recent research on historical painting techniques, including wall painting and polychrome sculpture. Topics cover the latest art historical research and scientific analyses of original techniques and materials, as well as historical sources, such as medieval treatises and descriptions of painting techniques in historical literature. Chapters include the painting methods of Rembrandt and Vermeer, Dutch 17th-century landscape painting, wall paintings in English churches, Chinese paintings on paper and canvas, and Tibetan thangkas. Color plates and black-and-white photographs illustrate works from the Middle Ages to the 20th century.
