Izmir, Turkey: s.p., 2021. bound in linen with halogen gold print, covered with silk cloth and housed in a protective box bound in original marbled paper covered boards by Nedim. Marbling. 8vo. bound in linen with halogen gold print, covered with silk cloth and housed in a protective box bound in original marbled paper covered boards by Nedim. (13) pages, followed by 84 tipped in samples of decorated paper. First edition limited to 30 signed and numbered copies. This book is the second in a series of three accordion books produced by Nedim Sönmez. This book contains 84 original decorated paper samples from the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. Contains a nine-page essay by Sönmez on a brief history of decorated paper. A wonderful collection of very rare and special historical decorated papers in small format.
"My first encounter with decorated paper in Europe was about forty years ago when I started my life in the Federal Republic of Germany. I was very surprised to see the art of marbling, which I knew from Turkey, was also known and made in European countries. Later, while researching the history of marbling, which is my main field of activity, I started to get to know the paper coloring techniques of different cultures and I began to collect information on their subject, as well as the decorated papers I had encountered, in order to write a book on worldwide paper decorating techniques.
We usually come across these beautiful papers on or inside books or as the interior lining of a furniture. Very few of them have reached today in layers. These papers are an art form that has been produced for over 500 years using very different techniques combined with a very rich variety of patterns.
The history of decorated paper is a special branch that is known only by experts. However, there are official institutions; such as, museums and private collectors, that are experts on the subject. Therefore, the works in this book are a very small part of an important collection of thousands of pieces, which were gathered as a result of hard auctions and long years of research. I
am pleased this book is valued and loved in private and public libraries as a small, yet valuable collection of decorated paper. The book will have a very important function for recognizing and
analysing historical papers as well as being used as a reference source."
