See More... (Marbling) Halfer, Josef DIE FORTSCHRITTE DER MARMORIERKUNST. EIN PRAKTISCHES HANDBUCH FUR BUCHBINDER UND BUNTPAPIERFABRIKANTEN.
Stuttgart Wilhelm Leo 1891 8vo. contemporary quarter leather with marbled paper-covered boards, all edges stained red, red leather spine label. 224 pages.
Second edition, improved and enhanced from the first edition published in 1885. This second edition of Halfer's famous marbling guide was the first to contain original samples and ten plates containing 35 marbled specimens. The traditional techniques of paper marbling were given new life in the late nineteenth century by this book and its extremely important author. In the handbook, Halfer introduces new methods, material and patterns of marbling that sparked a revival of the art amongst bookbinders and craftsmen. Halfer's innovations are based in scientific research, and his guidebook reflects his interest in the chemistry of colors and the physical nature of marbling sizes. As Richard Wolfe states in Marbled Paper: Its History, Technique and Patterns, "Halfer's influence in the art of marbling can not be overestimated." (See Wolfe, pp. 124-130). Rubbed along hinges and edges.
