En faisant réapparaître de nombreux éléments figuratifs restés inaperçus jusque-là, en raison des lacunes et dégradations des couches picturales antiques, elles ont permis de mieux comprendre l’iconographie originale. Les techniques d’imagerie et d’analyse non-invasives hors contact (notamment par réflectographie infrarouge, luminescence induite visible, microscopie et macro-spectrométrie de fluorescence X) ont livré des données importantes sur les matériaux et techniques picturales.

Les « pinakes de Pitsa » sont les plus anciens exemples connus de peinture sur bois dans la Grèce antique. La présente étude concerne quatre tablettes en bois de la seconde moitié du vi e siècle avant J.-C., découvertes en 1934 dans une grotte située en Corinthie, près de l’antique cité de Sicyone. Furthermore, imaging techniques have largely contributed to an enhanced reading and understanding of the inscriptions preserved on the panels, including the personal name “Kalypso” on the panel depicting a ritual dance (inv. 16467) this name had hitherto been known only through literary sources. Multiple figurative elements that had remained previously “unseen”, due to the losses and degradation of the original paint layers, were recovered, allowing for a better understanding of the original iconography. The application of non-invasive and non-contact imaging and analytical techniques (imaging techniques, including infrared-reflected and visible-induced luminescence, microscopy and mapping XRF) has brought to light significant evidence on the materials and the technology of the paintings. The “Pitsa pinakes” are the oldest known examples of panel painting in ancient Greece. In the present work, four wooden panels dated to the second half of the 6th century B.C., discovered in 1934 inside a cave located in Corinthia near the ancient city of Sicyon, are examined.
