Notice that this volume, like others published in France, made use of marbelizing for its cover. Oil paints would be added to water, and then swirled around to create the effect of marble stone, hence the name marbelizing. The oil and water would not actually mix, but resist each other, creating beautiful designs of swirls. Paper for the end-pages, or as in the case of this book's cover, heavy card stock, would be carefully lowered onto the surface of the oil/water mixture to take on the pattern. |
