Abstract
The origins of coffered ceilings go back to the Classic Antiquity; later, it was used in the ItalianRenaissance, but it was in the Portuguese panorama that they achieved an artistic uniqueness.This research seeks to overcome the lack of studies regarding the types, forms, themes,techniques and materials used in this type of art in the North of Portugal.The creation of a database for five districts and the subsequent quantification of the resultswere crucial methodologies to categorize the paintings on coffered ceilings.Through examination and analysis a comparison was made to the techniques and materialsof two different case studies from the same author, where differences were found mainlyin the preparation layer.
