Synopsis

The second chapter introduces the three major types of paper produced: white, brown, and blue. The third focuses on new products, especially papers for printing and drawing. The last chapter explores the influx of new artists' paper that occurred around the year 1800.

This second expanded and revised edition has 100 additional pages of text and 100 new illustratons. Co-published with the Winterthur Museum.
