X-radiograph(s) of "Allegory" 

Editor: This is an x-radiograph of “Allegory” by Bartolommeo di Giovanni, a ghostly film of what lies beneath. It feels so…vulnerable. What can you tell me about it? Curator: Ah, a peek behind the curtain! X-radiographs are like secrets whispered by time. I see not just paint, but the artist's hand, the hidden layers of creation. It's like archaeology, but for art. What do you make of those distinct vertical lines? Editor: They almost look structural. Curator: Precisely! The wood panel beneath. Each mark a clue to the story. It gives new meaning to the term "panel painting," doesn't it? Editor: It definitely does. Seeing art from this perspective is like unlocking a whole new language. Curator: Indeed. A conversation between science and art, revealing hidden truths.
