Daily Sights

I'm aware that brief mentions of Providence's windows popped up in two recent posts but I couldn't pass by the freshly cut budding branches arranged in this un-upholstered French-style loveseat. It's just waiting for some beautiful fabric.

Coincidentally, I also spotted the hand-marbled pink Thai paper (try Dick Blick or Binders) tacked temporarily to the back of a secretary for added punch.

Photographer Lacey Terrell's special edition for 20 x 200 was released this afternoon.

As noted yesterday, the photograph is from her offSET series.

Related resources: a past post with a great database suggested by Janet Blyberg, a detailed essay, and an antiquarian dealer, The Veatchs Arts of the Book, with rare titles on marbling and papermaking such as the 19th-century book, On Improvements in Marbling the Edges of Books and Paper, and James Sumner's The Mysterious Marbler.
