Featuring a cover with an exclusive design by Alibabette Editions Paris, A5 Black and White Artbook is perfect for sketching, design, writing, or collage. Measuring 8.26 x 5.5 inches, this art book has 224 blank pages of high-quality 100 gram fine-grain, acid-free drawing paper -- half the pages are in white and the other half in black. It's bound with an exquisite Ecru linen stitching that allows the book to lie open completely flat, and it is complemented by top-quality stitched seams on the spine. This process of binding, known as Bodoni binding, was created by Giambattista Bodoni (1740-1813) of Parma, who rebound ancient classics for both the Duke of Parma and Napoleon.
