Lumetis technologies are revealing hidden aspects of decorated walls and artistic techniques.
For the first time, Lumetis technologies have allowed us to uncover Egyptian paintings, artistic techniques, and the evolution of wall decorations in the tomb of Pharaoh Thutmose, a great conqueror forgotten by history, through ultraviolet fluorescence and infrared imaging.
Lumetis’s groundbreaking imaging technology is revolutionizing the study of ancient art, allowing archaeologists to uncover hidden details in over 3500-year-old artworks that were previously invisible to the naked eye.
This work is the result of an international collaboration between the Center for the Study and Documentation of Ancient Egypt (Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities), the Laboratory of Molecular and Structural Archaeology (CNRS-Sorbonne Université), and the European Center for Archaeometry at the University of Liège.
