Abstract

La imagen técnica multi-banda (MBTI) es ampliamente utilizada como un método eficaz para el examen de obras de arte. Aunque las diversas técnicas que lo conforman tienen una entidad propia, cuando se usan juntas proporcionan mucha más información al confrontar los diversos resultados. El objetivo principal de este trabajo es mostrar su uso en comprensión material, procedimental y creativa de un retrato del Rey Carlos IV. Más específicamente, la imagen técnica multi-banda se ha utilizado aquí para ayudar en la reconstrucción del proceso pictórico, al revelar datos relacionados con la creación y ejecución del cuadro (ductus y pinceladas, alteraciones, dibujo subyacente y primer manchado, composición pictórica, cambios y arrepentimientos, repintes, identificación de pigmentos, etc.). En este caso de estudio, dicha información sirve para profundizar en el proceso de trabajo del pintor, revelando algunas características que lo hacen único, y permitiendo finalmente la correcta identificación y atribución del retrato.
