This dataset contains multispectral images of Roman wall painting fragments provided by the Archaeological Museum of Cremona (Italy).
The detailed description of the dataset and of the experimental procedure from which it was obtained is provided in the following paper.
Please note that this dataset may only be used for research, educational, and non-commercial purposes. If you use it, please cite:

The dataset consists of five sets of pictorial fragments showing various colors and/or geometrical patterns.
For each fragment, four multispectral image types are provided: visible light reflection (VIS), infrared reflection (IR), infrared false color (IRFC) and ultraviolet-induced visible fluorescence (UVF).
All images are aligned and rescaled to match the original size of the fragments.
Folders named "Cropped" contain the original images cropped around the fragments.
Folders named "Cleaned" contain the same images of folder "Cropped" with background removed.
Numbered folders contain the images of each single fragment of that set, while folder "recomposed" contain the recomposition of the set made by archeologists.
