Subject: Accurate Enlarging?

Stone Spider,

Is it you in whose web we are glued, awaiting to be
liquified and drunken up?

Thank you for the web sites related to enlargement. Just
the pictures from the Rodin institue made it all come
clear. I am not sure about the difference between a
pantograph and a Collas machine. I will re-read. But I
can see that I could certainly make one should I want to.

Searching on the Collas machine I came up with a scholar
related to the Henry Moore institute, which I did not know
about either, Droth. She in a way seems to study the
fashions of scale. One of her talks at the institute was
on the rage for statuettes in the Victorian age. The
collas machine and the industrial revolution, don't you
know.

Lools like a great list of essays at the Moore institure.
Continuing with the scale discussion, those interested in
Cycladic art might be interested to note the essay on
Archipenko's use of drawings as he developed what seems to
me a rather Cycladic style. They must be bought to be
read. Knowledge scholarly ain't free.

Well, anyway thanks for stuffing my sock.

Bill
