Editor: This is an x-radiograph of "Bishop Saint," by Segna di Bonaventura. It's like looking at the painting's skeleton! What secrets do you think this peek behind the surface reveals? Curator: It's a beautiful ghost, isn't it? I'm struck by how much it looks like a stained glass window, broken down into cells. It makes me think about time, and how art endures, layer upon layer. What do you see? Editor: I see the grid, almost like a map. The original painting is underneath, but this view focuses on structure, almost like bones. Curator: Precisely! It's a hidden world, a reminder that there's always more than meets the eye. Art is not just what we see, but also the history, the process, the layers beneath. Editor: That’s a great point, I never considered the layers of history. Curator: It's like archaeology in a way, peeling back time!
