METHOD FOR MEDIATED NON-DESTRUCTIVE ANALYSIS OF PAINTING CANVAS, MONUMENT OR OTHER WORKS OF ART TO DETECT HIDDEN INDIVIDUAL PECULIARITIES THEREOF (VERSIONS), METHOD OF AUTHENTICATING AND/OR DETERMINING AUTHORSHIP OF PAINTING CANVAS, MONUMENT OR OTHER WORKS OF ART Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC G06K9/80 G06T1/00 

FIELD: physics, computer engineering.

SUBSTANCE: disclosed group of inventions relates to cultural-historical and art retrospective analysis using computer technologies. Disclosed is a method for mediated non-destructive analysis of painting canvas, monument or other works of art to detect hidden individual peculiarities thereof. The method comprises obtaining a digital copy of the image of a painting canvas, storing said copy on a computer and processing using at least one graphics editor. Computer processing is carried out by performing a sequence of procedures which includes changing the scale of the original image, successive dimming of the image using a "burn" tool with a minimum-size brush until visible contours appear, said contours characterising depressions and prominence of the surface.

EFFECT: obtaining digital copies of images of painting canvas and other works of art processed by mediated non-destructive technique, which enable to see prominence and depressions of surface and internal layers.
