For more than a century, laboratories, scientific photographers, restorers and experts in pigment chemistry have tried to answer a central question: <\/p>\n<p>What are the colors that make up the image made of? The short answer is surprising: there is no clear scientific consensus, but there is verified data that allows us to better understand what is known&#8230; and what remains a mystery. <\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>1.

Although the Church clarifies that this does not prove a miraculous origin, it does make it a unique case for art historians. <\/p>\n<h2>2. The colors do not show normal deterioration for a 16th century work.<\/h2>\n<p>The tilma is made of ayate, a maguey fiber that, under normal conditions, should last between 15 and 40 years before disintegrating.<\/p>\n<p>However, the fabric has survived almost 500 years, exposed for centuries to candle smoke, human manipulation, humidity and contamination.<\/p>\n<p>In analyses conducted in the 1970s, experts pointed out that:<\/p>\n<p>The colors have not crackled as is the case with old paintings.<\/p>\n<p>There is no traditional preparation coat, such as primers or sealers.<\/p>\n<p>The pigmentation remains adhered to the fiber without evident detachment.<\/p>\n<p>These findings are puzzling conservation specialists because they do not coincide with the normal behavior of colonial paintings.<\/p>\n<h2>3. There are later additions (but the central image remains intact).<\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"es\">Miracle or science? \ud83e\udd2f<\/p>\n<p>The Tilma of the Virgin of Guadalupe continues to reveal secrets 500 years on New research has unearthed findings that defy logic: \ud83c\udfb5 Music:<\/p>\n<p>Do stars and flowers hide musical notes that form a melody? \u2728 Astronomy: The 46&#8230; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/0PlJVTPz8Z\">pic.twitter.com\/0PlJVTPz8Z<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Fuerza Informativa Azteca (@AztecaNoticias) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AztecaNoticias\/status\/1999564433883037930?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 12, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\nSomething important and fully documented: the image has received later additions, especially in the seventeenth century.<\/p>\n<p>Studies confirm that: The little angel and the golden rays show pigments typical of Mexican Baroque. The border of the mantle was also retouched in later centuries. The image of the face, hands and dress show no detectable repainting.  <\/p>\n<p>This makes it possible to distinguish between the original work (which remains scientifically baffling) and decorative elements added by colonial artists.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Natural pigments, mineral powder or something not yet classified?<\/h2>\n<p>Researchers such as Philip Callahan, a NASA biophysicist, concluded after photographic studies that the pigments of the tilma fluoresce differently from those of traditional paints.<\/p>\n<p>It has not been possible to classify the composition with the techniques used so far, although specialists warn that the lack of direct samples limits the results.<\/p>\n<p>What is conclusive: Science has not identified a conventional pictorial method in the central image.<\/p>\n<p>Not detected: Oils, Tempera, Common mineral pigments, Animal or vegetable binders.<\/p>\n<p>The exact origin of the colors remains to be fully explained.<\/p>\n<h2>Why does this issue matter for Latinos in the U.S.?<\/h2>\n<p><span data-sheets-root=\"1\">\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"container\" data-elementor-id=\"119509\" class=\"elementor elementor-119509\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3efa168 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"3efa168\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1761a45 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"1761a45\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c4b3e3d e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c4b3e3d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0ac3e9b elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"0ac3e9b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/radioton.org\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/queonnda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/ae9e3e14-c733-11f0-a0e2-0a58a9feac02.png\" title=\"\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b3eb86f e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"b3eb86f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-36bf131 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"36bf131\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Dona y cambia vidas\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cd7b6e9 donatenow elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"cd7b6e9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Tu donativo brinda terapias, esperanza y un futuro sin l\u00edmites a ni\u00f1os con discapacidad.
