(Kinship)In the book ORIGIN OF THE SERIF, there is a chapter devoted to the binding in the craft of sign-writing as practiced in ancient Rome and modern Chicago. True brush writing with the square-edged brush, known to the Romans, went underground with the decline of Rome at the end of the third century. It lay dormant for 16 centuries. It was reborn as a merchandising, display art in Chicago around 1890. During the first quarter of the 20th century Chicago sign & showcard writers acquired astonishing skills with the flat, chisel-edged, red sable brush, writing out inscriptions directly with neither retouching nor retracing over strokes. Even to this day Chicago sign and showcard writers are totally unaware that they are the brus-wielding, spiritual heirs of Imperial Rome's inscription making craft. But the basic brush usage was common to Chicago and Rome. Had a master professional sign-writer of Chicago wished he could have written imperial majuscules which then were cut in stone. Similarly, Trajan's writing master could easily have adjusted to Marshall Field's brush writing demands in the 1920's.Tiff file: 1527 x 1957 pixels, 17.1 Mb; Display: jpeg, 624 x 800 pixels, 72dp
