Abstract The paper considers how technical art history facilitates intellectual access to cultural heritage. In the light of contemporary documentation, it examines the Westminster Retable, England's oldest easel painting, to draw technical and economic links between the Retable and Westminster Abbey. It suggests that details of construction and cost provide frames of reference in which to approach the severely damaged polychrome object.
