Looking at Paper
Evidence & Interpretation : Symposium Proceedings, Toronto 1999
This is a survey of some of the various methods used to investigate papers and record the results of those investigations. It covers some of the similarities and differences in investigating works of art on paper, documents, and printed material through fibre analysis and watermarks along with their recording. The accuracy of historical reference material, the importance of mill records as well as other archival material, and the needs for comparative material are discussed. Keeping an open mind in both the analysis and interpretation of the evidence is stressed, along with the importance of collaboration with investigators in other fields. Some aspects of papermaking and watermarking practice that seem rarely to be considered, but which can often have an important part to play in interpreting one's findings, will be highlighted.
