The role of lighting in museums has a fundamental importance. Light influences the perception of colours and space in the collections on display, therefore, any type of lighting must be adequately analysed to confirm the suitability and undistorted colour rendering of the illuminated objects. A two-stage perceptual test was carried out for this purpose. Initially, the participants were asked to evaluate the illuminants according to criteria such as: the brilliance of the colours, the degree of pleasantness of the lighting and the degree of overall satisfaction of the setting. Subsequently, the efficiency of different illuminants for the identification of colour differences between two objects was tested. The results obtained were then compared with the most commonly used colour rendering and colour difference indicators in order to determine their potential and limits.

Abstract
The role of lighting in museums has a fundamental importance. Light influences the perception of colours and space in the collections on display, therefore, any type of lighting must be adequately analysed to confirm the suitability and undistorted colour rendering of the illuminated objects. A two-stage perceptual test was carried out for this purpose. Initially, the participants were asked to evaluate the illuminants according to criteria such as: the brilliance of the colours, the degree of pleasantness of the lighting and the degree of overall satisfaction of the setting. Subsequently, the efficiency of different illuminants for the identification of colour differences between two objects was tested. The results obtained were then compared with the most commonly used colour rendering and colour difference indicators in order to determine their potential and limits.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
