This latest volume of the National Gallery's Technical Bulletin series features a range of studies, reflecting its commitment to the scientific research and conservation of paintings in its care. Articles include the recent conservation of Rosso Fiorentino's A Knight of Saint John; the historic technical literature in the Eastlake Library; the use of macro XRF scanning to inform the conservation strategy for Ferdinand Bol's An Astronomer; and newly discovered structural modifications and pictorial changes in Jacob Jordaens's Portrait of Govaert van Surpele and His Wife.
