Design a Museum Display

For this project, you'll set up a museum display that conveys how spectra are used in art conservation.

Putting it together

Spectrum Notebook.

Using all the data you’ve collected, design a display for a museum exhibit highlighting the use of light, color, and spectra in analyzing artworks. Choose one of the works of art featured in this project to display in an exhibit. Develop a display that tells the story of the hidden details a visitor might not see from looking at the piece. Your display should include:

  • At least two regions of interest within your chosen painting.
  • At least one spectrum or comparison image taken with the techniques described in this activity. (You may take screenshots from the online tool and paste them into your notebook.)
  • A caption with a description describing how art conservationists might use the data presented.
