title = "Canvas Supports and Grounds in Paintings by C.W. Eckersberg",
abstract = "The supports and grounds in 43 paintings on canvas by C.W. Eckersberg, dating from throughout his career, were investigated by visual examination, X-radiography, computer assisted automated thread counting and weave mapping, as well as by cross section analysis. The analytical data were complemented by written sources such as Eckersberg{\textquoteright}s diaries, accounts and letters. The results show certain patterns in his practice and are discussed in relation to the varying locations and conditions in successive phases of his career and in view of contemporary paint technical treatises and circumstances such as Danish nineteenth-century customs regulations. Preservational implications of Eckersberg{\textquoteright}s choice in supports and grounds are considered briefly.",
