Fri 24 November 2023
McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research
Dr. Agnese Benzonelli (University of Cambridge) is an archaeological scientist whose research investigates the different technologies used to artificially colour metals and glass in archaeological and historical times. Her research provides new insight into technological pathways to modify the materiality of metals and glass, and the transmission of knowledge across cultures. Her talk will present new research investigating how and why different colours were achieved in the stained glass of the Canterbury Cathedral.
