Napoleon I, 3D-printed fungi, a Louvre at the nanoscale and art made of bread: An Electron Microscopy Institute meets Art (Almost) perfect fake? – A presumed autograph of Napoleon I from 1815

Research output: Contribution to conferenceAbstract

Abstract

At the beginning of 2021, the FELMI-ZFE-Graz was contacted by the Styrian Provincial Archive to verify an autograph of Napoleon I – the so-called Lettre de reddition – from 1815 for authenticity. In this work correlative light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Raman microscopy were used to prove that this letter is falsifiable.
