About This Item
New Haven, Connecticut: Yale University Press, 2006. Hardbound. VG/VG (as new). Brown paper and black cloth over boards, with gold lettering; color-illustrated dj with black lettering; 164 pp. with 20 bw and 72 color illustrations. Includes essays and contributions by Stephen Daniels, Michael Fuller, and Maureen Green; James Whatman I and II were the most famous papermakers in 18th-Century England, and their factory, Turkey Mill, was the largest paper mill in the country. Paul Sandby featured the mill at the centre of his newly-exhibited painting, A View of Vinters at Boxley, Kent, with Mr. Whatman's Turkey Paper Mills, in the Royal Academy annual exhibition of 1794. This book examines Sandby's art as well as the interlinked developments of papermaking and watercolor painting in Britain. In addition, the book addresses the changes in the British countryside as a result of the beginnings of industry.
