Reviewing the analytical strategies used in the study of cultural heritage assets ie movable - artworks and archaeological items - and immovable - eg mural paintings, archaeological sites, historical buildings, this book pays particular attention to the analytical methodology (spectroscopic and chromatographic analysis) and ensuring reliable results are obtained. It considers the influence of the environment on the conservation state and how modern analytical methods have improved the possibilities of analysing materials. The book emphasizes multi-method approaches on a range of materials, an approach that is of keen interest to those working in conservation practice. It is for final year undergraduate study and masters' level and supplementary reading for postgraduates and academics who require analytical techniques to enhance their research.
