DescriptionA shop apron used in the production of marbled end papers, splashed with pigments from this processeMuseum Notes
This apron serves to humanize the printing process by showing that the creation of pristine marbled papers is in fact a messy business. The pigments randomly splattered on the apron looks like a piece of marbled paper.
