Abstract：In oil painting exhibition at art museums,improper lighting environments can easily induce visual fatigue and diminish the overall visitor experience.To investigate the influence mechanism of color temperature and illuminance on viewing fatigue,this study established nine lighting conditions by combining three color temperatures(2 800 K,3 800 K,5 200 K)with three levels of illuminance(50 lx,150 lx,300 lx).Using a combination of electroencephalogram signal acquisition(Rθ,Rα indices)and subjective questionnaires,a comparative experiment was conducted with 32 participants.The results show that among the nine lighting conditions,the combination of 3 800 K color temperature and 150 lx illuminance performed the best in both subjective and objective indicators.This combination was most effective in reducing visual fatigue and enhancing the viewing experience,confirming the balancing effect of moderate lighting parameters between oil painting protection and visitor comfort.Furthermore,a lighting evaluation model integrating subjective and objective factors was constructed using the entropy weight method.Nonlinear regression analysis revealed a quantitative relationship between lighting parameters and visual comfort(R2=0.7541),providing theoretical support and parameter guidance for the adaptive regulation of dynamic lighting systems in intelligent art museums.
