Revealing #palimpest with #multispectral#imaging! These amazing results, showing a #Merovingian overtext and a 5th-century Gospel undertext, were achieved by my colleague Alex Zawacki at Göttingen. I'll be presenting the full results of this and other cool discoveries in May at a German-language conference in Kiel.
Part of a medieval manuscript, set on its side, with the two lines of the overtext in 2 vertical lines on the left, and 6 lines of faintly brown undertext running horizontally across the image.
