  The Museum of Cultural History, University of Oslo, owns a polychromed sculptural group that depicts Saint Anne with the Virgin and Child. This object can be categorized with depictions of Christ’s human lineage and the Holy Family, a theme that was most potent between 1480 and the early 1530s, the period that was the apex of the cult surrounding the grandmother of Christ. However, what sets this group apart from other surviving examples of the Holy Family is that the figure of Saint Anne was designed to weep. A reservoir carved into Anne’s head could hold roughly a half litre of liquid that would flow through the channels at the corners of Anne’s eyes, to deliver tears that rolled down her cheeks. This simulated weeping was an essential function of this sculptural group, which was meant to inspire universally human responses to tears that in turn encouraged intense contemplation on the suffering of Christ. However, the centuries have not been kind to this object, and while it can in no way perform its original functions, it can offer a window onto late medieval piety. Understanding how Saint Anne performed for an audience, how her image spurred extreme emotion and how it offered cues for reflection are keys to understanding the many reasons why so few images of this sort survived the Protestant Reformation.

  The holistic study of sacred medieval objects and their shifting status in the Scandinavian countries requires many hands and many disciplines. To this end, the author team, with scholars active in roughly ten separate disciplines, has aimed to address four main themes: the original object – both in terms of appearance and experience; the ageing of objects and consequences for interpretation; analytical and instrumental methods that are essential within conservation and conservation science; and, finally, the development of display strategies that have ongoing implications for curation. This chapter introduces these themes to clarify the structure of the volume, Sacred Medieval Objects and The Afterlives in Scandinavia, as well as to lay out the motivations and rewards in tracking changing objects over many centuries.

  A multidisciplinary research group set out to determine how three fragmentary religious objects from Norwegian churches relate to each other. These include a shrine from Bygland church (Agder county), painted wings from Røldal stave church (Vestland county) and an altarpiece from the medieval church at Skjervøy (Troms county). Earlier researchers had linked these objects to Lübeck workshops and based on repeated patterns on the painted wings, to the so-called “Master of the Jegher epitaph”. This chapter clarifies and problematizes these similarities and attributions by focussing on physical and chemical data, as well as its historical contextualization. The data suggest chiefly that multiple painters, who had access to common patterns, were responsible for the wing-panels, while separate box-makers produced the corpus boxes and other elements, including sculptures. The data and structural features point to a variety of craftspeople, working over quite a long period, probably well beyond the bounds of Lübeck. Although evidence for workshop locations is too ambiguous to interpret, what is clear is that groups of craftspeople met the needs of a Norwegian market that was not bound to north-German regulations or patrons.

  Saint Anne with the Virgin and Child came to the Museum of Cultural History at the University of Oslo in 1915. The sculptural group has no solid provenance, and no documentation prior to the 1930s, after the museum restorer/handyman Louis Smestad removed heavy secondary paints that covered all three figures, which prior to 1915 had been extensively repaired. Smestad revealed gilding, paint and/or ground layers that are fragmented, worn or altogether missing down to the wooden support. The object, in short, is difficult to read. Building on Chapter 5 in this volume, which addresses the original functions of this object in relation to late medieval piety, this chapter focuses on Smestad’s notes and recent analytical imaging and surface investigations. Here, attention is given to Smestad’s description of his work, and to new analytical results that can offer a clearer understanding of how the original polychromy might have looked, how the object has been damaged and the impact of Smestad’s treatment. The authors interpret data from portable spectroscopies (XRF, Raman and DRIFT) in tandem with insights offered by macro-imaging and X-radiography. In advance of sampling and reconstructions, the results of this work facilitate a new appreciation for the dramatic history of this object and its damaged polychromy. The results can enhance the experience of current audiences faced with this fragmented yet intriguing object in a museum gallery.

  As a matter of tradition, it was problematic for a sculptor to create a human likeness with the aim that it could be worshipped. Nevertheless, Christian craftsmen created three-dimensional images of the Virgin, Christ and cherished saints and, especially in the late-medieval period, a mark of a sculptor’s skill was an image that could convince a viewer that inanimate sculptural form was somehow imbued with life. This chapter addresses the tricky nature of the sculptor’s craft, which is described (explicitly and implicitly) in Biblical and medieval texts. Discussion starts with an overview of sources that describe prohibitions on the creation of icons, then turns to theological debates and positions that eventually allowed craftsmen to justify their efforts. Special attention is given to the situation for sculptors in Iceland and Norway. In total, this work considers the stigmas, unavoidable dilemmas and attitudes to image-making, which by the sixteenth century had changed so dramatically that negative associations had all but disappeared.

  Two short texts known as Líkneskjusmíð (“Image making”) and Að mála upp á tré (“To paint on wood”) allow a privileged glimpse into medieval craftsmanship in the far north of Europe. Through these sources, probably from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, it is possible to address aspects related to the production of images that were crucial for the practice of Latin Christianity in the Archbishopric of Nidaros. Líkneskjusmíð and Að mála upp á tré, together with sources from the period c. 1320 to 1550 for the Bishoprics of Hólar and Skálholt, provide extraordinary insight into the situation for sculptors and painters in medieval Iceland and Norway.

  The processional banners now in Bergen and Växjö belonged to rural churches at Lavik (western Norway) and Hemmesjö (southern Sweden) before they were transferred to newly formed museums in the nineteenth century. Since this time, historians have treasured them both for their age and rarity. The two-sided painted textile in Växjö is one of seven banners to survive in Sweden, while that in Bergen is the only medieval banner of its kind in Norway. The banner from Lavik has furthermore been preserved with a pole. Given the scarcity of medieval banners in Scandinavia, art historians, archaeologists and curators have devoted considerable efforts to contextualising them, their iconography and their uses during processions and feast days. Nevertheless, and for so many reasons, past publications miscommunicate the features of aged paintings on textile and underestimate the significance of their physical condition. This chapter considers how scholars have relied on appearance to date them since the 1820s, well before recently generated analytical data for the banners and the pole. These data offer a foundation for adjusting current opinions on their dates, which up to now have relied on appearances of surfaces, style and iconography alone. However, the further the investigations have progressed and the more evidence that the research group has amassed, the more puzzling their appearances have become. This work therefore offers a springboard for future radiocarbon dating of lead-containing colours.

  The field that is commonly identified as ‘technical art history’ is situated at a multi-disciplinary cross-roads, which presents both rich possibilities and challenging obstacles for conservators. Because technical studies often emerge from analytical investigations, and after problems within objects have been diagnosed, it is important to recognise that contextualisation of data and historical information requires argumentation that is inductive, rather than deductive. Conservators engaged in technical studies might therefore look to theoretical models for research in material culture, a field that offers appropriate guidance for shaping arguments around the making, meaning and the changing physical form of works of art.

  Evidence for deliberate damages to late-medieval cult sculpture from Norwegian churches has posed a challenge: to create a context for specific losses and particularly the loss of noses in lieu of solid documentary source material. This chapter is an attempt to contextualize damages with attention to cultural continuities. These are related firstly to pre-Reformation perceptions of disfigurement, and secondly to circumstances under which evangelical Lutheranism was implemented after 1536 in Norwegian lands. In this way, this research has aimed to clarify relationships between damages and the continued presence of sculpture in Protestant churches. Given that devotion to cult sculptures continued in some locations long after the Reformation, it is argued here that one way to halt idolatrous behaviours was to disempower the sculpture – to punish it in ways that carried significant social stigma.

  This work proposes a change-based segmentation method for applications to cultural heritage (CH) imaging to perform monitoring and assess changes at each surface point. It can be used as a support or component of the 3D sensors to analyze surface geometry changes. In this research, we proposed a new method to identify surface changes employing segmentation based on 3D geometrical data acquired at different time intervals. The geometrical comparison was performed by calculating point-to-point Euclidean distances for each pair of surface points between the target and source geometry models. Four other methods for local distance measurement were proposed and tested. In the segmentation method, we analyze the local histograms of the distances between the measuring points of the source and target models. Then the parameters of these histograms are determined, and predefined classes are assigned to target surface points. The proposed methodology was evaluated by considering two different case studies of restoration issues on CH surfaces and monitoring them over time. The results were presented with a colormap visualization for each category of the detected change in the analysis. The proposed segmentation method will help in the field of conservation and restoration for the documentation and quantification of geometrical surface change information. This analysis can help in decision-making for the assessment of damage and potential prevention of further damage, and the interpretation of measurement results.

  Green pigments in micro-samples taken from three late-medieval painted objects from Norwegian churches have been investigated with the aim to characterize their constituents and understand how they relate to damages observed in passages containing green paints. The cross-sections were analyzed by optical microscopy under visible and UV light, Scanning Electron Microscopy coupled with Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectrometry and vibrational spectroscopies (Raman, ATR-FTIR). In addition, Gas Chromatography coupled with Mass Spectrometry was employed for the characterization of binding media, using a derivatization methodology recently developed for the detection of metal soaps in paint samples. This extensive characterization aided the identification of the individual constituents and the stratigraphy of green paints. It also builds the foundation for future ageing studies that can provide better insights into the mechanisms of the processes at stake in selective delamination of paints containing copper complexes.

  Micro-samples from 57 original paint tubes used between 1904 and 1909 by the Norwegian painter, Harriet Backer were studied with inductively coupled plasma–optical emission spectroscopy (ICP–OES). This accurate elemental characterisation of Backer’s original materials aims to fill several gaps in conservation science, painting conservation, and art technology. Firstly, it provides a novel and validated analytical method that can be applied to other painting materials. Secondly, ICP–OES offers scientific information about different oil colours from the late 19th to the early 20th century by Dr. Schoenfeld & Co., Düsseldorf, currently known as Lukas–Nerchau, whose archives were depleted during the Second World War. This work also lends new insights into the paintings of a renowned female Norwegian artist, whose painting materials have been little studied to date. ICP–OES results, coupled with a comprehensive, illustrated catalogue of paint tubes, will be instrumental for ongoing scientific investigations of this painter’s body of work.

  Metal soaps pose significant concerns in the preservation of paintings made with oil as a binding medium. In highly alkaline environments, metal soap aggregates may undergo mineralization processes with the formation of new phases, such as carbonates, chlorides, oxides and sulfates of the metal cations that are present in pigments or paint additives. In this work, we report new examples of the mineralization of lead soaps in paint-cross sections taken from a late-medieval panel painting owned by the Museum of Cultural History at the University of Oslo. Scientific analyses were carried out with optical microscopy under UV and visible light, scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy to investigate and characterize the nature of the compounds present in the samples. Lead (II,IV) oxide, which is presumed to be a secondary product in the mineralization of lead soaps, has been identified in lead-based paint.

  Scholarship related to late-medieval church art in Norway has, since the late-19th century, been predicated on the theory that artistic production in Norway largely ceased in the period after the Black Death. This theory, which led to the division between indigenous and foreign products, has had far-reaching implications for the historical interpretation of surviving altarpieces, shrines and polychrome sculptures that pre-date the Reformation in Denmark-Norway (1536). This paper centres on formative scholarship for attributions to Lübeck workshops in particular, and sparse evidence related to the activities of painters working in and around Bergen. The aim has been to inform and underpin materials research (physical and chemical), which is currently underway within the scope of a multi-disciplinary project based in Conservation Studies, University of Oslo. This study has strengthened arguments for the presence of active painters in Bergen, probably linked to the Hanseatic community. For this reason, the circumstances under which composite objects were produced are likely to be far more complicated than a Lübeck attribution could possibly reflect.

  A technique for non-invasive dendrochronological analysis of oak was developed for archaeological material, using an industrial CT scanner. Since 2013, this experience has been extended within the scope of the research project ‘After the Black Death: Painting and Polychrome Sculpture in Norway’. The source material for the project is a collection of late-medieval winged altarpieces, shrines, polychrome sculpture, and fragments from Norwegian churches, which are owned by the Museum of Cultural History, University of Oslo. The majority cannot be sampled, and many are too large to fit into the CT scanner. For these reasons, a combined approach was adopted, utilizing CT scanning where possible, but preceded by an ‘exposed-wood’ imaging technique. Both non-invasive techniques have yielded reliable results, and CT scanning has confirmed the reliability of the imaging technique alone. This paper presents the analytical methods, along with results from two of the 13 objects under investigation. Results for reliable dates and provenances provide new foundations for historical interpretations.

  This paper centres on two categories of non-accidental damage to late-medieval polychrome sculptures from Norwegian churches. The first includes wear and associated paint losses, which developed over time, apparently as a result of repetitive touching during veneration. The second category is more varied and includes targeted damages to hands and noses – losses that relate in some way to stigma and punishment that would have been immediately recognisable to congregations in the post-Reformation period. Nearly 130 individual polychrome wooden sculptures were considered in the course of this study. Results point to motivations, both for touching that led to loss, and to deliberate breakage. Exploring beliefs and behaviours in relation to these losses has been one way to decode highly fragmentary surfaces. This work will contribute to an exhibition due to open in Oslo in 2018.

  An investigation of the Kumla altar at the Swedish History Museum was undertaken during a collaborative project between conservation education programmes from three Nordic universities. Students from Conservation Studies in Oslo examined painting materials and techniques to contribute to discussions of changes to this complex object. Both analyses and treatments were performed within an open gallery, encouraging interaction with the public. The results with later analyses of paint cross-sections indicate that the materials and their uses are similar to those found in the limited number of contemporary Lübeck objects that have been analysed to date. However, ongoing research is revising earlier assessments of Lübeck workshop practices, for which this study is an important contribution.

  The current discipline of conservation lacks a satisfactory theoretical and methodological framework to guide historical writing beyond scientific methods. To address this gap, this paper evaluates disciplinary shortcomings and proposes a solution for a project based in Oslo that takes advantage of disciplinary strengths. The solution involves the adaptation of a robust critical approach that is closely aligned with post-processualism in archaeology, which notably engages with theoretical perspectives on material culture. The framework offers guidance for arguments developed around physical transformations of late-medieval liturgical objects and the circumstances (physical, environmental, and socio-political) that continually define and re-define their meanings. The themes chosen for the project set this research at the cross-roads between conservation and material culture studies, with investigations directed towards tangible and intangible transformations, or phases in the ‘lives’ of objects that pre-date the Reformation but are now held in museums.

  Interconnected investigations between conservators, historians, heritage scientists and museum professionals centre on objects that were essential to medieval Christianity in Scandinavia (c. 1100‒1530). Through new and diverse physical data from polychrome sculptures, shrines, winged altarpieces and painted banners, the authors probe a range of issues and problems, from original devotional functions and changing appearances, to the impacts of changing liturgies, locations and priorities. This book highlights the diversity of theoretical and practical approaches to sacred medieval religious objects, and brings together new findings related to the transformations of these objects since the Reformations.

  In this episode, we talk to Noëlle Streeton from the University of Oslo, Norway, about POLYCHROME—a large-scale research initiative exploring medieval painted surfaces. Noëlle recently received major funding from the European Research Council for this exciting project, which will involve objects from Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. We dive into what it's all about. We discuss the project's goals, why it matters, and what it could mean for the field of conservation.

  POLYCHROME, “The Survival of Damaged Medieval Polychromed Heritage in Nordics” is an ERC-funded project, launched in October 2024, led by the author and based at the University of Oslo (2024‒2029). A primary goal is to discover how selectively mutilated medieval images in Norway, Sweden and Denmark have transitioned to cultural heritage. Reaching this goal involves evaluating how, where and (where possible) why wooden sculptures and panel paintings were misused, attacked, repaired, and restored over hundreds of years. This paper will reflect firstly on the project’s foundations, in particular with respect to questions that surround dominant narratives in the Scandinavian countries for the “preserving effects of Lutheranism”. This phrase refers at once to the sheer quantity of surviving medieval liturgical objects and positive impacts of state religion on church rooms. In churches and museums, there are roughly 3200 saint sculptures, altar shrines and altarpieces that date from c. 1150‒1530. This large body of devotional objects has, in many ways, compensated for the absence of written sources that might otherwise help scholars to comprehend post-Reformation use and misuse of objects linked to the Catholic cult. Historians have filled this gap with theories about the effects of Lutheran routines after shifts away from canon law and Catholic practices. Based on surviving objects, some (like Martin Wangsgaard Jürgensen) have argued convincingly that re-use and re-purposing can explain preservation. Nevertheless, current theories neither account for objects with significant damage to the face (e.g., missing nose) nor dismemberment, which mimicked legal corporal punishments that were prevalent through the medieval and early modern periods. Therefore, current explanatory models do not help scholars to comprehend the appearances of objects that were either cleansed of locally unacceptable details, disempowered through the removal of body parts, refreshed and completely repainted. This discussion continues with an outline POLYCHROME’s analytical agenda, which aims to address and fill these undocumented gaps. A mobile laboratory is systematically imaging damaged objects to identify, evaluate, characterise and measure sites of loss, marks from blows, full-length breaks, internal splits, shattered/frayed wood (external/internal), structural repairs and non-original paints. This agenda, paired with archival research, is allowing the project team to work across comparable data sets to account for losses, and to study repairs that mask significant and relevant physical clues. Examples (to be presented) not only complicate now-dominant narratives associated with the preserving effects of Lutheranism, they also demonstrate that current impressions of preservation owe much to restorers.

  During the spring of 2015, a late-medieval double winged altarpiece from the church of Kumla, belonging to the Swedish History Museum in Stockholm, was the focal point of a Nordic Collaboration project on academic and professional growth in conservation education. The project had two key aims: To deepen Nordic cross-sector cooperation and to develop good, innovative practices for public engagement in the field of conservation education. The execution and success of the project was made possible by students and staff from Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences, the University of Oslo and The University of Gothenburg as well as The Swedish History museum in Stockholm. The altar’s preservation state and its need for remedial conservation offered an excellent opportunity for students of both painting and furniture conservation to gain practical experience while working in small groups and under supervision for two weeks at a time. This presentation outlines some of the outcomes of the project based on the experience of former participating students from the University of Oslo.
