X-RAY DETECTIVES

Shield is genuine; same design shows beneath surface
X-ray reveals pins connect fake and real parts of bowl.
4 Family Weekly. October 13, J957
In the early days of x-ray, photographs of the con
tents of a purse and the bone structure of a human hand
created widespread interest. The x-ray of the purse was
considered an amusing novelty, but the sight inside a living
body was recognized for what it was: one of the greatest
boons to medical science.
X-ray has since been associated almost exclusively with
medicine, but recently its novelty aspects while never
ignored have been getting more serious attention in an
other serious field: art. Radiologists are often asked to
ferret out fakes among the masterpieces. Among other
things, their invisible ray has burned through:
A flawless-looking 300-year-old Persian bowl to reveal
that it had once been shattered and more than a third of
it now was clay.
An early American portrait of fine technique which,
with even finer technique, had been painted over another
earlier portrait.
A suspect wooden shield from Italy, bearing a 15th
century coat of arms, which bore up under the ruthless eye
and was immediately acknowledged as genuine.
The darkroom detectives also give their special third
degree treatment to rare stamps, antique prints, fossils, and
mummies. Through their work, accurate appraisals are
made, minor points of history settled, and gaps in our
knowledge of man and nature filled.
