| Abstract | "In the last several years, sophisticated computer methods in image processing, image understanding, pattern recognition and graphics have been applied to problems in art history, art practice, and art conservation. Many of these computer techniques were developed for problems in digital photography and forensic imaging. The vast majority of photographic prints from digital cameras are "corrected" automatically by computers so that photographs appear better than the reality. In the hands of art historians, such color correction methods have been applied to paintings to correct for the differential fading of pigments in old masterworks. The same sorts of color adjustments can predict the appearance of paintings after cleaning and restoring to better judge whether the improved painting is worth the expense and time"-- Provided by publisher. |
