Look at this lovely evidence for pouncing: The artist would first produce a template to be copied by placing a sheet of parchment under the original picture & making prickings along the outline in such a way that the pricks penetrated through to the lower sheet of parchment, leaving a dotted line. 🪡

It starts with an English man complaining that a paprika-based dish, a national dish of EASTERN EUROPE, was TOO SPICY

This is going to be hilarious, isn't it
