Abstract
The precise description of illuminated manuscripts and early prints necessitates material analysis. For the identification of pigments, microscopical, radiographical, and microchemical techniques can be applied. Materials can be identified with certainty if sufficient samples prepared according to ancient recipes are available for comparison. See also <i>AATA</i><b> 21-375</b>. -- AATA
