with you in that conversation involved.
Secondly, I saw a photo in the museum of storage, the drums were approximately the diameter (there is no link!),

I'd like to check "officially", with links to authoritative sources ..
(Love for the accuracy of the details, you understand ...)

easier to just believe in people. Otherwise, dial the phone any major museum and ask-no sedyat same.

In one of the themes have a question, looks like the edge of modern hardboard and cardboard. Here are two photo-1,2 - razlohmachenny edge Fiber Industrial Russia, 3 - edge board printing for covers (Balakhna), the color brown. The thickness of both materials is about 3 mm.
There is a new board, produced from rag paper and pulp, it is more homogeneous and has a gray-blue hue. The world is a canvas-Eskaboard, in Russia-Kuvshinovo, Surozh.

Today was a representation of the Orsha flax in Moscow, bought a canvas. It turns out that there is a term for severe flax okislovany-t e last primary processing on the field or in containers under the influence of natural factors (such as cabbage Kvasov), but no acid was not treated. This is a question of my neudoumenii to the article on canvas, where it was reported that severe flax treated with acid.

I read that one artist Samara http://frol-veseliy.livejournal.com/201320.html#cutid1 uses as a canvas so-called banner fabric for advertisement. It is dense, from 300 g of PVC fabric is very resistant to atmospheric effects and UV, T e inside, probably eternal. One side of it is covered with acrylic primer (laminated) to print the image. The artist writes in her acrylic. The producers had read that you can write and butter. In principle, if covered with acrylic-and why not?
Very inexpensive - 30-40 rubles sq. m. Given that this is the cost of soil, it just really want to try.
In the gallery of Art + Art at Winzavod hang huge acrylic work precisely on this fabric, I thought-on does not look like linen.

Who knows what about this?

I'm on presskarton (DWT) pulled the purchase primed canvas. That is, if size is not big, my 30 to 21.5 cm. Canvas something time-tested. I have a few older works written primed hardboard 10-15 ten years ago. It seems to me that they dry up and darken over time. I think the hardboard has a porous structure and all the time "pulls" of oil paint to canvas. Canvas thin and has a "pulling" oil characteristics. With modern synthetic is better not to get involved. Chemists would say that the synthetic molecules are not stable and it decomposes over time.

Fiberboard and cardboard, different things. On small jobs, and no, you can talk on anything. And on the work of more than 1 m away buckets of soil - very high cost. And long-on preparation of the canvas take weeks. Purchased too expensive. And here, pulled and write.
As regards the time-tested, visit any museum will give examples of negative about the traditional canvas and oils. That zhuhnet, then cracks, then crumbles. In MMSI work even the 1970's on the canvas already swell and crack. But working with acrylic always look good.
I am sure that many working in large formats sovr Western artists write on such a canvas, PVC.

What is acrylic? This is a synthetic chemical compound. It beggars belief that this compound does not decompose over time. Although if it contains mineral pigments, then they will be durable, at least the pigment itself.

[Seriy]

Acrylic is a polymer binder instead of linseed oil. Pigment ink exactly the same as in oil. Plus, after drying, curing it is chemically unchanged - with nothing happening. And oil continues to live-polymerize, oxidize, decompose, exposed to microorganisms.
Previously, the term oil paints inferred mineral pigments. Now it is more synthetic, so that from the "traditional" an oil painting remained only a shell.
The same with linen canvas-absorbs moisture, highlights, destroys bacteria, decompose, oxidize. A PVC all the drum.
