As light meets matter, art under scrutiny

The process of verifying art can often benefit from a combination of artistic and scientific methodologies. While artists possess deep expertise and understanding of historical contexts, their conclusions may sometimes appear prematurely conclusive.

Real-World Scientific Thinking

Art Verification by Scientist

Scientists falsify one another's conclusions
Constant state of progress
Unlike artist, considers multiple posisbilities to explain results
Can misinterpret results due to lack of historical context
Combine scientific method and high technology

Reaching a Conclusion

Sometimes even after science, results are inconclusive
Scientific method supplements historian method

Art verification by Artist

Appears to be prematurely conclusive
Has expertise in field
subject-specific knowledge not available to scientists

Dates of painting, etc

Alone doesn't suffice, needs extensive scientific analysis
Use techniques and historic contexts to determine reliability
