Synopsis

A collection of papers from the 2014 ATSR symposium in Amsterdam, exploring how art technological source materials—such as artists’ notebooks, workshop records, and trade documents—inform the study of artworks from the Middle Ages to today. Contributors demonstrate how these sources deepen understanding of artistic style, materials, and techniques, supporting both art-historical and conservation research. The volume underscores the vital role of documentary evidence in connecting artistic intent with material practice.
