Nonetheless, there was a lack of information about making paper by hand in Central and Eastern Europe, as it was highlighted during discussions.1 This paper is aimed at connecting east central and east southern parts of Europe (i.e. without Russia and Nordic countries) to the international stream of development in European hand papermaking before introducing paper-making machines into countries of the discussed region of Europe. This account directed to Anglophones is supplemented with the remarks 1 Simonetta Cavaciocchi (ed.): Produzione e Commercio della Carta e del Libro Secc. XIII-XVIII. -

Please contact [email protected] for additional information. CHANGES IN PRINT PAPER DURING THE 19TH CENTURY AJ Valente, ([email protected]), President, Paper Antiquities When the first paper mill in America, the Rittenhouse Mill, was built, Western European nations and city-states had been making paper from linen rags for nearly five hundred years. In a poem written about the Rittenhouse Mill in 1696 by John Holme it is said, “Kind friend, when they old shift is rent, Let it to the paper mill be sent.” Today we look back and can’t remember a time when paper wasn’t made from wood-pulp. Seems that somewhere along the way everything changed, and in that respect the 19th Century holds a unique place in history. The basic kinds of paper made during the 1800s were rag, straw, manila, and wood pulp. -

The Rediscovered Watermark in the Drawing Leda and the Swan by Raphael Kept at Windsor Castle
arts Article The Rediscovered Watermark in the Drawing Leda and the Swan by Raphael Kept at Windsor Castle Claudio Calì Design Department, Politecnico di Milano, 20133 Milan, Italy; [email protected] Abstract: This article presents an in-depth study of Raphael’s drawing of Leda and the Swan (RCIN 912759), preserved at Windsor Castle. The research aims to make the paper’s physical properties accessible and extend the information on the watermark. The methodology follows an artistic– design-oriented approach. The data extraction process uses a back-lighting photographic technique combined with image post-processing operations. The work catalogues in scientific terms the complete paper mould lines of the Windsor sheet according to the International Standard of Paper Classification (IPH). Based on comparisons with a series of drawings by Leonardo da Vinci, the contribution suggests a chronological and provenance estimate of the paper used by Raphael. Keywords: Raphael; Leonardo da Vinci; Leda; design; paper-based watermark; digitisation; graphical representation; image-processing; art; preservation 1. Introduction The drawing Leda and the Swan in the Royal Collection at Windsor Castle, RCIN 912759, dated 1507, is one of Raphael’s best-known mythological studies and conceivably Citation: Calì, Claudio. 2021.
