Fig. 4From: Use of standard analytical tools to detect small amounts of smalt in the presence of ultramarine as observed in 15th-century Venetian illuminated manuscriptsDetail of ER FT-IR spectra of selected samples (1500–400 cm−1). The indicated bands at 1083 and 1005 cm−1 are Si–O–Si (antisymm stretching); bands at 686 and 652 cm−1 are Al–O stretching; band at 578 cm−1 is the S3− feature of ultramarine; the band at 449 cm−1 is silicateBack to article page
