“…One of the important features of our proposed system is that we allow users to search for the rare colors in the artworks, since the colors that are less used often attract more attention. Painters often use rare pigment materials and toning methods in their paintings [6]. However, in many cases, these rare color schemes do not appear on a large area of the paintings.…”

“…Figure 12 shows the Score color name of the color names from the image in Figure 9. It can be seen that blue, which many art researchers focus on [6,32], has a high score. If the task requires the result to be biased towards extracting the dominant color, the opposite value can be used on the training loss function setting.…”

“…In addition, the model has the effect of color correction for the same artwork subject to different photographic methods. Further, since in many cases, rare colors are noticeable and easy to be found, and many studies focus more on rare colors [6], in our proposed model, we help users to find the rare colors in the artwork when retrieving it. We also implement a search system based on the proposed method.…”

In recent years, artworks have been increasingly digitized and built into databases, and such databases have become convenient tools for researchers. Researchers who retrieve artwork are not only researchers of humanities, but also researchers of materials science, physics, art, and so on. It may be difficult for researchers of various fields whose studies focus on the colors of artwork to find the required records in existing databases, that are color-based and only queried by the metadata. Besides, although some image retrieval engines can be used to retrieve artwork by text description, the existing image retrieval systems mainly retrieve the main colors of the images, and rare cases of color use are difficult to find. This makes it difficult for many researchers who focus on toning, colors, or pigments to use search engines for their own needs. To solve the two problems, we propose a cross-modal multi-task fine-tuning method based on CLIP (Contrastive Language-Image Pre-Training), which uses the human sensory characteristics of colors contained in the language space and the geometric characteristics of the sketches of a given artwork in order to gain better representations of that artwork piece. The experimental results show that the proposed retrieval framework is efficient for intuitively searching for rare colors, and that a small amount of data can improve the correspondence between text descriptions and color information.

Probing some organic ukiyo-e Japanese pigments and mixtures using non-invasive and mobile infrared spectroscopies

Non-invasive identification of organic colourants in paintings still remains a challenging issue, especially in the case of extremely thin layers of paint on printed paper such as Japanese ukiyo-e prints. Because prints are fragile artworks, various non-invasive analytical methods need to be employed. The present work focuses on results obtained by combining fibre optic reflectance spectroscopy in the near-infrared range (FORS NIR) with mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy. The first step consists of identifying spectroscopic marker bands typical of some organic pigments (indigo, gamboge, cochineal, turmeric, safflower, dragon's blood). Some reference printouts involving paper substrate, binder and pigments (seldom used or as mixtures) were then investigated in order to establish a straightforward way to extract the marker bands of the pigments. Some data post-treatments were applied to the spectra, such as spectral subtraction, in order to abstract the signal from overlapping bands originating from both substrate and binder, and second derivative calculation to emphasise the pigment marker bands' frequency positions. These data treatments turned out to be relevant to extract information on the organic pigments of interest, even within complex mixtures.
