Editor: This is an X-radiograph of "Madonna, Child and St. John" by Andrea Previtali. It's fascinating to see the painting revealed in this way. How does this radiographic view change our understanding of the artwork and its historical context? Curator: This image offers unique insights into the painting’s physical structure and the artist's process. These radiographs are documents of material analysis, and become historical records in themselves. What can this tell us about its reception in the broader cultural landscape? Editor: That's a great point. This radiograph is also now a record of its creation. Curator: Exactly! We can now consider how its imagery has shifted over time through both art historical interpretation and this evolving technology.
