Abstract
- During one of Coronelli's terrestrial globes restoration, belonging to the Bologna University, we found some substances considered not to be original. Their presence was both on the globe surface and under one of the gores. In order to characterise the organic material (original or added in restoring procedures) we employed pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS). The analytical results reveal the presence of the original materials, such as natural gums and animal glues, together with industrial products, such as synthetic germicides.
