Bosch, Sebastian; Janke, Andreas

This dataset was created in the context of the following study:

Sebastian Bosch and Andreas Janke, “Manuscript Illumination in 19th-century Italy. Material Analysis of Two Partial Copies from the Squarcialupi Codex” Open Information Science, vol. 5, no. 1, 2021, pp. 63-88.

The data was recorded with the following instruments. We refer to the foliation numbers as used in the manuscript.

R_DINO:
micrographs (bmp files) recorded under visible (VIS), ultraviolet (UV) and near infrared (NIR) light with the three-colour imaging USB microscope (Dino-lite AD413T-I2V, Metav, Germany);
folder “spots_pdf”: documentation of microscopy spots (pdf files)


VIS_EXACT:
folder “raw”: raw spectra (xlsx files) recorded with the portable visible reflectance spectrometer EXACT (X-rite GmbH, Germany);
folder “spots_pdf”: documentation of measurement spots (pdf files);
the raw data was further plotted and evaluated with the software OriginPro 2018G version b9.5.0.193 (opju files)


XRF_ELIO:
folder “raw”: raw spectra recorded with the portable XRF spectrometer ELIO (XGLab S.R.L., Italy, software version 1.5.7.7) as a project file (Toronto 2018.xga) and as individual files (spx and txt) with micrographs exported from the ELIO camera for the measured gold areas in folder “pics_gold_bmp” as bmp files;
folder “results_csv”: csv files with net intensity values of assigned elements evaluated by SPECTRA software, ARTAX 7.2.5.0 (Bruker Nano GmbH, Germany);
folder “spots_pdf”: documentation of measurement spots (pdf files);
the raw data was further plotted and evaluated with the software OriginPro 2018G version b9.5.0.193 (opju files)
