Abstract

In recent years, lead white darkening was discovered on works of art in the Royal Collection of Graphic Art of the National Gallery of Denmark (SMK) in Copenhagen. This phenomenon was observed in prints, drawings and other works of art on paper containing lead white highlights and produced between the 15th and the 19th
centuries. The urgency of understanding this phenomenon was underlined by the formation of newly blackened regions over a relatively short period of 10 years.
