Dominika Anna Tarsińska-Petruk · 2022
Catalogue summary
At the Cracow museum, analysis of aurypigment and realgar degradation across nine icons links the Pantokrator, Deesis, and Last Judgment works to Armenian and south-Balkan painting traditions.
Why this matters
The material study helps distinguish workshop traditions while explaining how arsenic pigments altered religious images over time.
