Research interests

Painting, polychromy, artists’ materials, trade, studio / workshop practice, art-technological source research, art technology, scientific examination, analysis of paint samples.

I am particularly interested in the scientific examination of cultural heritage, with a specific focus on the study of materials, artistic techniques and material degradation as well as the use of analytical techniques suitable for the investigation of cultural heritage objects. My methodology includes a comprehensive approach to analysis of paint samples with a special interest in artists’ pigments and the localisation and identification of binding media (organic and inorganic) within paint cross sections.

My interest in the materials and techniques of Golden Age Spanish art (painting and polychrome sculpture c. 1550-1700) was developed in part through my research on polychrome sculpture and notably the techniques and recipes for flesh painting (encarnaciones) documented in Francisco Pacheco’s Arte de la pintura (1649) as well as my work carried out for the project Unwrapping an Icon: Lady in a Fur Wrap and Related Spanish Portraits in the Stirling Maxwell Collection (funded by Royal Society of Edinburgh / Santander Universities). My interest in the materials and techniques of early 20th century European and Canadian painting was developed through my involvement in the EU-Project CHARISMA (Cultural Heritage Advanced Research Infrastructures: Synergy for a Multidisciplinary Approach to Conservation/Restoration) and the research project No one else has these colours – Research on Ernst Ludwig Kirchner’s Painting Technique, which was funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research.

‘Taking an original, interdisciplinary approach, this dissertation will be a first detailed investigation into the creation of scientific illustrations that underpin the idea of Company Painting in India. Using methods of art history combined with scientific examination, the contribution made by Indian artists to scientific discovery, documentation and dissemination in the late 18th and early 19th centuries will be investigated, revealing new knowledge in art and science history and essential information for cultural heritage conservation.’ (Claire Banks, 2019)
