Watercolour illustrations from Mary Gartside’s An Essay on a New Theory of Colours (1808). Hand-made and unique to each volume, the images have been deemed some of the earlier examples of abstraction in painting.

hooray thank you!!!
#WordyWednesday
Type: The letters used to print words. Generally, the term refers specifically to moveable type where the letters can be rearranged in any order to print any text. Printing with moveable type was undertaken in Asia as early as the 11th century and was separately invented in Europe in the 15th century by Johannes Gutenberg. A design for a given alphabet is called a “typeface.” A complete set of type in a specific typeface is called a font.
#i was wondering if the way the type was set was nonhorizontal so that gravity was part of the answer#but basically needed someone's preexisting knowledge or else hope to luck out & have some Printing Video address it exactly#interesting that there's those At A Glance markings put on the bottom!!

It's finally time to reveal my piece for @palimpsestzine!
This was the first zine I ever participated in and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. A group of amazing and lovely artists coming together for a great project <3
If you haven't yet, go check out the full zine on itch.io!
Donations will be open until the end of the month and all funds will go to Librarians and Archivists with Palestine. You'll be able to access some extra content and find out about the creative process behind it, too!

#still haven't rewatched that etaoinshrdlu [sic] linotype doc on youtube....#anyone have a handy explanation for why the type is set right to left (for left to right read printing) AND upside down?#the upside down part is not apparent to me#watched a video of someone running a printing shop where for example. they had it rotated only ''halfway''#why not rotate it further & have it be a mirror image Yet still right side up?#is it something about what works better for arranging the type? something about what works better for operating the press?#anyways this is also why Font peak technically refers to the Size of the lettering right; i.e. on computer programs?#b/c the Typeface style is the same but to make it larger or smaller you'd need a different set i.e. font?
