X-Radiography of Textiles, Dress and Related Objects.

O'Connor, Sonia A., Brooks, M.M. 18 November 2009 (has links)
No / X-radiography of textile objects reveals hidden features as well as unexpected components and materials. This non-destructive technique throws light on construction, manufacturing techniques, use, wear, repair, patterns of decay and dating. X-radiography improves artefact documentation and interpretation as well as guiding conservation approaches by enhancing understanding. This book explores techniques for X-raying textiles. It describes approaches to image interpretation and explains how, through digitisation and digital image manipulation, maximum information can be realised. Case studies include archaeological, ecclesiastical and ethnographic textiles, items of dress and accessories, upholstery, quilts, embroideries, dolls and toys. Museum professionals will find this stimulating book an essential guide for developing their own practice or commissioning textile X-radiographs.

La couleur dans la civilisation Nasca : production tinctoriale et picturale / Colour in the Nasca civilization : the production of dyes and paints

Boucherie, Nathalie 14 June 2014 (has links)
Cette thèse se propose d’étudier de manière approfondie les matières colorantes et les techniques de coloration appliquées aux textiles de la culture Nasca. Cette civilisation préhispanique, sans écriture, s’est développée sur la côte sud du Pérou pendant environ neuf siècles (200 ans av. J.-C. ; 700 ans apr. J.-C.). Parmi sa culture matérielle, les textiles sont abondants et nombre d’entre eux sont de grande finesse avec des décors polychromes. La polychromie avait probablement une signification dans la cosmogonie Nasca et le textile est particulièrement chargé de sens dans la culture andine. Pourtant, les matériaux de la couleur demeurent un sujet encore méconnu dans le domaine textile. Il semblait donc intéressant d’identifier au moyen de méthodes physico-chimiques les matières colorantes utilisées par les artistes textiles Nasca. Pour ce faire, une enquête de terrain a été menée en amont pour récolter et identifier les sources colorantes susceptibles d’avoir été employées. Puis un corpus textile a été constitué avec des textiles inédits, issus de fouilles récentes menées sur les sites de Los Molinos, Estaqueria et Cahuachi, l’ancien centre politico-cérémoniel des Nasca. Quelques tissus d’autres cultures (Topará, Mochica et Nasca drivé) ont aussi été analysés pour établir des comparaisons.Les résultats fournissent de précieuses informations qui caractérisent la production tinctoriale et picturale des textiles Nasca. Au-delà de cet aspect technique, ces données sont utiles pour aborder sous un autre angle des problématiques archéologiques plus complexes notamment lorsque l’attribution culturelle des textiles est inconnue ou discutée, comme ceux de la péninsule de Paracas. / This thesis’ aim is to propose an in-depth study of the dye-sources and dyeing and colouring techniques used for textiles in the Nasca civilization. This Pre-Columbian, pre-literate civilization flourished on the southern coast of Peru during some nine centuries (200 BC to 700 AD). In its material culture, textiles are very numerous and many of them are of outstanding quality, with a rich polychromatic ornamentation. Polychromy probably was of great significance among the Nasca and textiles seem to always have been of particular importance in Andean culture. Nevertheless, the material sources of the colours on these dyed and painted textiles have remained a comparatively poorly explored research field. It therefore appeared as a promising, innovative quest to try and identify the colouring matters used by Nasca textile artists, using state-of-the art physico-chemical analytical methods. To this effect, botanical and anthropological field missions were first conducted in order to identify and collect colouring sources that might have been employed by the Nasca dyers and textile painters. A corpus of archaeological textiles was assembled, selecting textiles discovered in the course of recent archaeological excavations on the sites of Los Molinos, Estaqueria and Cahuachi, the latter being the antique political and ceremonial centre of the Nasca civilization. A number of textiles from other cultures (Topará, Mochica and Nasca-derived) were also analyzed to allow comparisons.Our results bring precious new information on the production of dyes and paints on Nasca textiles. Allowing even further prospects than these important technical discoveries, they bring new light into complex archaeological issues, such as the cultural attribution of archaeological textiles whose provenance is unknown or disputed, which is the case for some textiles from the Paracas peninsula.

L’activité textile en Attique (Ve et IVe siècles avant notre ère) / The Textile Production in Attica (5th and 4th centuries B.C.)

Spantidaki, Stella 25 February 2013 (has links)
Ce travail est basé sur une approche pluridisciplinaire des sources antiques ; les informations issues des sources écrites, de l’iconographie, des outils de tissage et des fragments textiles conservés, sont comparées pour créer une image aussi complète que possible de l’activité textile en Attique de l’époque classique. Cette étude révèle une activité textile très soutenue, divisée entre l’espace domestique et l’espace artisanal, occupant un grand nombre d’hommes et de femmes. Les Grecs anciens avaient hérité d’une grande tradition textile et d’un savoir-faire qui, comparé à la bonne connaissance du milieu naturel environnant, leur permettait de faire des choix (de matière première, de techniques de fabrication et de techniques d’ennoblissement) pour arriver chaque fois au résultat désiré. Des différences de qualité aux matières premières, aux techniques de fabrication et d’ennoblissement, évoquées dans la littérature de l’époque, indiquent l’existence de textiles de différentes qualités, qui répondaient aux besoins de toutes les couches sociales. / This study examines the textile production in classical Attica with an interdisciplinary method, which combines information from the written sources, the classical iconography, the textile production tools and the classical textile remains, in order to establish the most complete image possible of the textile activity in the classical period. The sources inform us of an elaborate textile industry and a high specialization of the professional technicians working in this domain. The Greeks have inherited a great textile tradition and technical knowledge, which, combined to their familiarity with the natural environment made them to be able to choose between raw materials, production and embellishment techniques in order to achieve the desired result. Differences in the quality of the raw materials, the production and embellishment techniques, as references in the literature, suggest the production of a great variety of textiles of different qualities in order to respond to the needs of all social classes.
