摘要：Paintings on copper were mostly produced from the 16th century until the end of the 17th century.Nevertheless, its production never ceased completely, and examples can be found in the 20thcentury. This study encompassed two complementary sources of information: historical documentaryresearch, on sources from the 17th and18th centuries; and analytical research, which involved thecharacterization of two paintings. The characterization included optical microscopy, for the studyof the pictorial technique; micro-Raman spectroscopy, for the identification of pigments and fillerspresent in the preparatory layer; and stereomicroscopy, digital radiography and Particle induced X-rayemission, for the study of the support. The literature research revealed the existence of, at least, 20documentary sources with information related to technique and materials used to paint on coppersupport. The analytical results confirmed the information collected from the historical literature.
