In the same month the Magazine of Science published facsimiles of three photogenic drawings made, not on paper, but on boxwood blocks sensitized by Talbot's process and subsequently engraved by hand.24 They were shadowgraphs of a Fool's Parsley seedling, a sprig of Grass of Parnassus, and a piece of lace.
Reveillon's productions. In 1752 Reveillon started a wallpaper shop and factory in Paris. With the increasing demand for cheaper types of Wall decoration, he produced pictorial hand- blocks madeblocked panels that were intended to replace the paintings that were being used in the fields of wood panels, then popular in French interior decoration. Small panels and vignettes were also designed for overdoor and overmantel trumeaux. Reveillon was a remarkable craftsman and made some of the most beautiful wallpaper patterns ever produced. Many of the original hand- blocks madeblocks made by Reveillon are in existence today and have been used in making reproductions of his work. At times he employed designers to assist him, some of whom had also worked for Oberkampf, the manufacturer of toiles-de-Jouy. Among them was Huet. |
