Born from the combination of gypsum and fire, plaster is today present in museum storerooms, palace decorations, artists' studios and building facades. However, this versatile and inexpensive material is as familiar as it is little known.
From Antiquity to the Merovingian period and the early Middle Ages, from the Renaissance to the present day, this book traces the history of plaster and the extraordinary multiplicity of its uses and techniques: cladding building facades, decorative arts and contemporary sculpture. It includes an ambitious photography campaign and a richly documented text.
