A SECULAR

The difficulty comes from the few colors at the disposal of the cartonnier. It is therefore not only a extremely sharpened sensitivity to the color that she has to hold, but she has also to master this combinatorial science that makes her choose in a restrains choice the different combinations that will reply to the effect sought-after.

With her perfect knowledge of the colour range the cartonnier takes up the challenge of the most harmonious use of it.

colors does not prevent
