Title
Père Marquette's Illinois prayer book
Description
Here we see yet another type of decorative paper, probably achieved through a mechanized process. The design of flowers with tendrils of gold is reminiscent of wrapping paper for gifts or even wallpaper, which is of no surprise, as these types of papers simultaneously coexisted in the 18th century with the decorative papers destined for bookbinding.
