In February, research groups AXES and ARCHES (University of Antwerp) performed in-situ research on several of the paintings that are currently undergoing conservation treatments. The Macro XRF-scanning experiments clarify which materials were used and how they were used. This helps to answer questions that arise during&nbsp;the conservation treatments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"405\" height=\"257\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/heritage-sciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-901\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/heritage-sciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image-1.png 405w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/heritage-sciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image-1-300x190.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.uantwerpen.be\/heritage-sciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image-1-400x254.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 405px) 100vw, 405px\" \/><figcaption>MA-XRF scanning of &#8216;The tower of Babel&#8217; by Tobias Verhaecht and Jan Breughel the Elder (sixteenth century), &#8216;The temptation of Antony Abbot of Egypt (1594) by Maerten de Vos and &#8216;Sitting Nude&#8217; by Amadeo Modigliani.
