Popis
Shrnutí:Rembrandt is renowned for his impasto, a paint with outstanding rheological properties, the exact formulation of which has remained a mystery. In their Communication on page 5619 ff., V. Gonzalez et al. used synchrotron X‐ray diffraction to investigate microscopic samples from Rembrandt masterpieces; a rare lead compound, plumbonacrite (Pb5(CO3)3O(OH)2), was detected in the impasto. This constitutes the fingerprint of Rembrandt's recipe, shedding light on the Master's pictorial technique.
