On the very top of the page, one sees this quote, very inspiring, by one who seems like a true passionnate of the form. "Je regrettais de ne pouvoir plus souvent délaisser le marbre de Carrare pour le papier m=E2ché, ce matériau divin qui toujours le dépassait, et en noblesse et en finesse." -Mémoires de Benvenuto Cellini, sculpteur et orf=E8vre Florentin (1500-1571) Instant translation: "I regretted not being able to more often set aside the Carrare marble for paper mache, this divine material which always surpassed it, both in nobility and refinement." -Memoirs of Benvenuto Cellini, Florentine sculptor and goldsmith (1500-1571). And the link for the page full of links, most in French, about paper mache: http://www.lesgrandespersonnes.com/papiermache.php _______________________________________________ List address: puptcrit-AT-puptcrit.org Admin interface: http://lists.puptcrit.org/mailman/listinfo/puptcrit Archives: http://www.driftline.org
