The gilded polychrome carved wood in Portugal, (talha dourada) gained its most rich expression during the Baroque epoch with the development of production techniques and the use of of gold leaf. The present paper proposes a complementary and comparative study of two important complexes of talha: one from St. Alberto’s church, integrating the visiting circuit of the Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga (Lisbon), and the other from church of Vale de Figueira (Santarém district). Both complexes house talha dourada’s decoration from the 18th century, that were studied through an inter-disciplinary approach, in which analytical data (optical microscopy, fluorescent stain, XRF, SEM-EDX, micro-computerized tomography, FTIR, Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionisation-Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry) complement historical data.
