Fig. 11

Original documentation and renderings, visualizing surface height variations of ‘Girl with a Pearl Earring’. Top row shows the original documentation, part of a of raking light photograph (see Fig. 1a), and b crack tracing image (see Fig. 1b). Bottom row: rendering of 3D data from Std-Res 3D scan (c) using colour and topography data, (d) rendered as a matte, white surface, and (e) rendered using a colour map, to enhance the height variations. Note that for the renderings the height variations are exaggerated relative to the lateral scale, to increase their visibility
