What do Michelangelo, Beethoven, and your sketch pad have in common? Fabriano! #ad Fabriano is a small town in Italy's Marche region that has been making paper since 1264. Its early innovations—introducing cotton fiber, gelatin sizing, and the invention of the watermark—transformed papermaking across Europe. These developments created surfaces that preserved ink clarity and watercolor luminosity, shaping how artists worked for centuries. 🧑‍🎨 Presentation by Morgan from our Merchandising Team 😁 Thanks to our vendor partners at fabriano1264 for the footage 🫶🏽 Special thanks to Amayah Media whose work we included here 🎥 Filmed at Blick Studios in Chicago, Illinois #Fabriano #artistpaper #watercolorpaper #artmaterials #papermaking #historiccraft #artstudio
