Cezanee painting
Authentic
Polyenes could be contaminated caused by soot or burning lamp
Art historians
unsigned and many of cezanee paintings weren't signed
the painting is similar to one of Cezanee workings
It gives the feeling of Cezanee
painted in late 1880s
His paintings weren't from the nature but scratching in his studio
Fluorenscence data
green areas in the trees and orange are as bright as Cezanee paintings
use the same orange pigments(very similar)
Made in the same studio
XRF(X ray fluorescence)
elemental compositions of the painting match the composition of pigment during 1839-1906
the pigment were known before and during the cezanee time
Fake
UV spectrum
Substantial absorption from apolyene
painting showing absorbance of 0.6,so it is not like to be from 100 years ago
Infrared Spectroscopy(IR)
Yellow areas shows cadmium-based composed of cadmium yellow lithepone(cadnium-barium)
this mix wasn't there till 1927
the binder is used is animal glue binder and it is used in the nineteeth century till 1940s
cezanee didn't draw underpainting
Unkown source
no evidence from Fluorescence for polyene emission fom the painting although it should be sensetive than UV absorption
