This article discusses a number of modern techniques used for the analysis of works of art. The most widely used approaches as well as lesser known ones are outlined in terms of their applications and the kind of information on the condition of artworks that can be extracted. Special attention is paid to the method of thermographic analysis of works of pictorial art. The principles of the technique, various computational approaches, and safety concerns are discussed. A set of examples is provided for the demonstration of the capabilities of thermographic assessment, including a range of real canvas and panel paintings exhibited in museums and in private collections. PACS Nos.: 87.63.Hg, 78.20.nb, 81.70.Pg, 07.20.-n. Résumé : Nous discutons ici de techniques modernes utilisées pour analyser les oeuvres d'art. Nous présentons les méthodes les plus connues comme les moins connues, selon leurs applications et la sorte d'information qu'on peut extraire sur les conditions de l'oeuvre d'art. Nous portons une attention spéciale à l'analyse thermographique d'oeuvres picturales. Nous discutons les principes de la technique, des différentes approches informatiques et des soucis de sécurité. Nous présentons un ensemble d'exemples pour illustrer les capacités de l'évaluation thermographique, incluant plusieurs véritables tableaux et panneaux peints exposés dans des musées et des collections privées.
