DESCRIPTION:Join us for an online lunchtime seminar exploring how imaging
  technology was used on an early modern fan to advance our understanding
  of artisanal creativity. Dr Stefan Hanß and Tony Richards (Senior Photo
 grapher\, John Rylands Research Institute and Library) will discuss how 
 a collaborative approach using in-depth archival research and imaging te
 chnologies reveals new insights into material choices and artisanal maki
 ng processes that crafted the modalities of early modern feather fans.\n
 \nIn the age of globalization\, early modern featherwork functioned as a
  site of innovative cultural crossings and material experiments. The fea
 therwork discussed in this seminar points to the global scale of the tra
 de in materials\, the transmission of artisanal knowledge\, and the blur
 red boundaries of consumer cultures in the late 17th century Dutch Empir
 e.\n\nThis is an online event that will take place via Zoom. Book your f
 ree place here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/imaging-and-imagining-ear

 ivities. The seminars will showcase rare and fascinating objects from th
