Catalogue Entry: A rare collection of Paper Ladies made entirely from pieces of paper sculpted to form faces, bodies, clothing and accessories. These objects were made by Julia Norris who was married to the rector of Witney, Oxfordshire in ??? (date here). The Paper Ladies are meticulously sculpted and proportionate, exhibiting both the wonderful skillset of their maker and the craftsmanship of women during this period. Each Paper Lady is fashioned with full dress skirts, a cape, headcovering and accessories. Quote from Julia Norris' great grandson, David: "One talent she pursued with distinction. From a variety of papers prepared by long soaking she modelled her paper ladies fashioning their garments from another stock of papers kept dry and chosen for staying power. These figures were sold for charity and some bought by the Queen herself. The charity may have gained regal suppport from one of the rare moments of amusement or from the object's intrinsic merit of originality." Condition: The Paper Ladies are stored in two non-archival boxes and filled with some non-archival tissue to protect and help hold their form while stored. The paper used to make the Paper Ladies' is heavily acidified and demonstrates both some "foxing" and "browning" typical of the acidification of paper goods. There is considerable dust on the surface of each of them. They are in fair-poor condition as per Lucy Commoner's condition rating system. Albeit for textiles, her system applies to these paper objects. The Paper Ladies would benefit from the recommendations below. Recommendations: -surface cleaning -archival storage -preventive conservation steps should be taken to limit light and humidity -integrative pest control management should be put in place to protect them Report prepared by Tatiana Verdon
