Art-Test offers
a variety of dedicated professional services for
the analysis of paintings and artworks in general.
Technical examinations can provide information
about materials and techniques used by artists.
They may also reveal the extent of old damages
now concealed by past restoration. Moreover, they
can supply important art historical facts that
can identify artists, assist in dating and help
to uncover forgeries.
Thus the results of our investigations enable
the detailed planning of targeted conservation
activities, and support the monitoring and recording
of their execution phases.
The analyses are carried out with portable non-invasive
instruments, i.e. without the need of moving the
artwork from its location and without extracting
any sample from it. Our techniques are applicable
to different sorts of artworks irrespective of
size, material, techniques and period of execution.
Art-Test services are meant for private and public
institutions, art collectors, exhibition and museum
curators and conservators.
