Abstract

This article describes a unique suite of mobile equipment designed for non-invasive, non-destructive identification of the inks and pigments in medieval manuscripts. It explains the circumstances which led to the development of the equipment, outlines some of the findings that have been made with it to date, and summarizes the broader questions that may be addressed and answered with future work.
