They are a truly fascinating
record of the industrial processes towards the end of the 18th century & the
machinery and equipment used to make paper. Indeed, the very paper onto which
these engravings were printed, would have be manufactured with machines of this
calibre. State of the art at the time !
*The artists involved were under the direction of Monsieur Benard.
Regretfully we have been unable to translate some of the technical
terms into English, despite the assistance of on-line French-English translation
services !
These are genuine
original items printed at the date stated. We do NOT offer modern reprints or
reproductions.
