Dripping oil and lifting paint on Black and White on Brown by Georges Mathieu: Material research and conservation treatment (conference contribution)
Original language description
In 2003, painting by Georges Mathieu Black and White on Brown (1955) was acquired by National Gallery in Prague (Inv. no. O 18014). Soon after acquisition, first signs of the degradation were observed – the thick black impastos were soft and sticky, locally liquefied. It was assumed that the condition of the paint is caused by a poor drying skill of the oil binder in the combination with carbon-based pigment that slows down the drying process. Detailed analysis of the binders from the drips and the paint was performed using GC-MS. Pigments were identified by means of non-invasive XRF and Raman spectroscopy and via micro-Raman spectroscopy and SEM-EDS on samples. The conservation treatment comprises of consolidation and removal of oil drips. The next step will be to prevent the development of new drips.
