对文物保护工作者来说，对不匹配的文物进行调查是一项细致而艰巨的工作。艺术品分析的一个重要方面是在研究过程中如何取样和避免损坏艺术品。最大限度地利用从历史文物中提取的信息的一种可能方法是对相同的微量样品使用几种敏感的微量分析技术。作为这种多方法方法的一个例子，在这项工作中，一幅油画《悲伤的处女》被研究，它的材料被分析，以粗略地确定日期和鉴定这件艺术品。质子诱导X射线发射（PIXE），中子活化分析（NAA），光学显微镜，扫描电子显微镜（SEM），显微拉曼光谱（MRS）和傅里叶变换红外光谱（FT-IR），获得成功的结果。这些方法可以识别不同的无机颜料（氧化铁，炭黑，白色铅，普鲁士蓝）以及靛蓝。光学显微镜和SEM揭示了样品的层状结构，而FT-IR能够确定所使用的清漆（虫胶）的性质。通过使用这些补充技术，可以识别绘画中的材料，这些材料表明了艺术品的制造时期。(c)2005 Elsevier B.

The investigation of unmatched ancient objects is an attentive and arduous activity to conservation scientists. An important aspect of art analysis is the question on sampling and avoiding damage on the artefact during the study. A possible way to maximize the information that is extracted from the historical object is using several sensitive micro-analytical techniques on the same micro samples. As an illustration of this multi-method approach, in this work, a canvas painting 'Virgin of Sorrows' was studied and its materials were analysed in order to roughly date and to authenticate this object of art. Proton induced X-ray emission (PIXE), neutron activation analysis (NAA), optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), micro-Raman spectroscopy (MRS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) were used, obtaining successful results. These methods allowed identifying the different inorganic pigments (iron oxide, carbon black, white lead, Prussian blue) as well as indigo. Optical microscopy and SEM revealed the layered structure of the samples, while FT-IR enabled to determine the nature of the varnish used (shellac). By using these complementary techniques, it was possible to identify the materials in the painting, which are indicative for the period of manufacturing the artwork. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V.
