contents: Romantic picture of a number of putti busily dipping, couching, and lifting paper. In the middle is a rocaille hammer mill also operated by a putto. The print is at the same time a paper sample, made of wood and derived from the Dutch version of Jacob Schäffers's book on experiments with various plants as raw material for paper making instead of the more expensive rags.
