Stranica 99 - For smaller pictures, the enamel, whilst fused, is drawn into long parallelepipeds, or quadrangular sticks ; and these are divided across by the tagliulo and hammer, or by a file ; sometimes also these pieces are divided by a saw without teeth, consisting of a copper blade and emery ; and the pieces are sometimes polished on a horizontal wheel of lead with emery.

Stranica 102 - Then the cement is laid on to the extent of as many palms as can be executed, before the cement dries. The plasticity and softness of the cement lasts about twenty days; after that the oil exudes, and the lime and travertine becomes a hard mass.
Stranica 101 - The mass is ready in a shorter time in warm weather than in cold ; in summer the mass is at its perfection in twenty days ; this is known from its ceasing to swell, the water that was in the lime having evaporated ; the mass is then uniform throughout, like an ointment. In winter, and when the air is moist, it requires a month to bring the paste to perfection. The wall to which the Mosaic is to be applied, must have the lime taken off its surface ; then furrows, an inch deep, are formed on the wall,...

Stranica 100 - Anciently, the paste, in which the pieces of mosaic are imbedded, called in Italy Stucco, was composed of one measure of quicklime quenched in water, and three measures of pounded marble ; these were made into a mass with water and white of egg, and this was called Marmoratum ; but this paste hardens too rapidly, so that it is hard before the workman has time to insert the pieces, and it is injured by damp more readily than the cement made with oil.

Stranica 101 - ... rapidly, so that it is hard before the workman has time to insert the pieces, and it is injured by damp more readily than the cement made with oil. The paste now used is composed of one measure of quenched quicklime, and three measures of powdered Travertine stone ; these are mixed with linseed oil, and are stirred and worked up every day with a trowel. The mass is at first level on the surface, but afterwards swells up. Each day some oil is added, to prevent the mass from becoming dry and untractable.
Stranica 100 - Gilded mosaic is formed by applying the gold leaf on the hot surface of a brown enamel, immediately after the enamel is taken from the furnace ; the whole is put into the furnace again for a short time, and when it is taken out the gold is firmly fixed on the surface. In the gilded enamel used in mosaic at Rome, there is a thin coat of transparent glass over the gold.
