The British Museum Acquires Rare Picasso Prints
by Christina Mancuso - Sep 26, 2016


The British Museum has acquired sixteen important lithograph prints and three aquatint prints by Pablo Picasso covering the post-war period from the late 1940s to the late 1950s. This acquisition closes the last major gap in the British Museum's representation of Picasso's achievements as a printmaker. Highlighting key themes in his work from this period, including his relationship with the youthful and independent-minded Francoise Gilot, the lithographs were produced in Paris when he was working in close collaboration with the printer Fernand Mourlot. The large aquatints from the early 1950s show Picasso's experimentation with the painterly possibilities of the technique working with young printers at the Paris workshop of Roger Lacouriere  with whom he had first worked in the 1930s on the Vollard Suite.

At Dell's Maraschino Cherries, It's All About the Cold Process!
by Marina Kennedy - Jul 27, 2016


It's all about the process at Dell's Maraschino Cherries in Brooklyn, New York, the 'COLD' process that is. Founded in 1948 in a square food store front, Dell's Maraschino Cherries has continuously perfected their family secretive cold process in the manufacturing of their maraschino cherries. Unlike other maraschino cherry manufacturers that use a heat process, Dell's cold process infuses the syrup at a much slower rate which retains the integrity of the cherries by maintaining their shape, size, and weight, but even more importantly, the skin of the cherries don't shrivel. A heat process which quickens production times infuses the syrup at a much faster rate which shrinks the cherries and gives them a gummy taste.
