Canson 1557. 180gr.

This bright white paper was designed to accentuate contrast and allow colors to stand out clearly. The name pays homage to 1557® , the year the Montgolfier family founded Canson1557 . This great classic is a favorite among professional and amateur artists who appreciate its light grain. Under an appearance of simplicity this paper is a product endowed with sophistication and technique. The paper's grain is neither too smooth nor too prominent, giving it a neutral, subtle surface that is ideal for sketching and drawing with dry media.

Canson® 1557® paper is ideal for use with all types of graphite as it retains pigments very well and allows unlimited shading and gradation. Canson® 1557® is mass- and surface-glued, giving it a remarkable quality and making it resistant to repeated erasures.
