An international authority on paper and Senior Conservator for Paper at the
Winterthur Museum, John Krill has written a detailed and interesting
account of the evolution and types of paper available to artists in England
from the Renaissance to the early nineteeth century. This comprehensive and
well-illustrated work is an invaluable source for anyone interested in
prints, drawings, or paper history.
The first chapter provides the basic information needed to understand hand
papermaking and discusses each of the paper types. 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.
First published in 1987, this second expanded and corrected edition has 100
additional pages of text and 100 new illustrations - including details -
from many of the world's major museums. Co-published with the Winterthur
Museum.
