The rich history of blue paper, from the late fifteenth to the mid-eighteenth centuries, illuminates themes of transcultural interchange, international trade, and global reach. Through the examinations of significant works, this volume investigates considerations of supply, use, economics, and innovative creative practice.
How did the materials necessary for the production of blue paper reach artistic centers? How were these materials produced and used in various regions? Why did they appeal to artists, and how did they impact artistic practice and come to be associated with regional artistic identities? How did commercial, political, and cultural relations, and the mobility of artists, enable the dispersion of these materials and related techniques?
Bringing together the work of the world's leading specialists, this striking publication is destined to become essential reading on the history, materials, and techniques of drawings executed on blue paper.
