A heavy, uncoated sheet with a soft, felt-marked surface: it takes ink the way a good book page does, without shine, and lies flat on the wall. At 0.38 mm it is almost four times as thick as copy paper.
At ten times. The edge of an e: the ink settles into the grain instead of sitting on it.
Weight, drawn to scale at forty times the thickness.

Pigment, not dye: lightfast for a century behind glass. The yellow and the blue are mixed to match this site’s own, proofed by eye against the screen until they agree.

Making
By hand
Each print is checked against its proof, trimmed by hand, numbered and signed in pencil in the margin, wrapped in acid-free tissue and rolled into a sturdy tube. Editions are small, and when one is gone, it is gone.
