This manuscript has not been restored earlier. With the aid of Raman spectroscopy technique it was found the use of cinnabar for red shades, the mixture of indigo and gypsum pigments in various ratios for blue shades and a mixture of sulfur-arsenic pigments (orpiment and pararealgar) for yellow shades. It was performed the study of the characteristic luminescence detection capability of the pigments at the real (non-model) samples, when excited by laser radiation of various wavelengths.
