Paul Cezanne's painting under scrutiny

Conclusion: there is no clear conclusion

Dr. Andersen (scientist) counter evidence

there is underdrawing and Cezanne never did underdrawings

pigment mix of yellow areas wasn't used until 1927 after Cezanne's death

used infrared spectroscopy

Dr. Pruschy (scientist) counter evidence

polyene absorbtion 0.6 instead 0.15 --> not 100 years old

used ultraviolet spectrum of a paint chip

Dr. Simpkins (scientist) pro evidence

the fluorescence data support attribution to Cézanne

trees and rooftop similiar to Cezanna painting Gardanne

Dr. Montoya (scientist) pro evidence

however, can be faked by a material scientist

compositions of pigments available during Cézanne's time

used x-ray fluorescence

Dr. Marden (historian) pro evidence

characteristic of his constructivist phase late 1880s

same brushwork

similiar to a Cezanne at the Barnes foundation

4 scientists from spectrotech, Edgar, Dr. Marden and Mr. Wandless investigated

Is fake or not?
