Annotated X-radiograph showing the flashing that formed along the juncture between different core materials—ceramic shell (in the muzzle) and plaster/clay mixture—as a white line of uneven density halfway up the horse’s head (yellow arrows). An internal core support wire was inserted to connect the two core sections (red line). A line around the neck (green line) corresponds to TIG welding to join two separately cast parts. Remnants of sprues appear as denser patches (blue overlays). Note that the use of beam limiting shutters (used to reduce X-ray scatter, see II.3) have caused underexposure of the lower quarter and the right edge of the radiograph.
