This research article presents the results from the application of a complementary analysis methodology for the accurate identification of Liberian fibers, specifically linen and hemp, used in the textile supports of easel paintings. The research focuses on six paintings attributed to various representative authors of New Spanish recognized plastic arts over a wide-ranging time frame spanning from the last third of the XVI century-until the end of the XVII century. During this paper we discuss the continuance detected in the process of intentional selection of canvases used for viceregal paintings in Colonial Mexico.
