Parchment scroll, dating back to the 1760's. As described by Elsie Toms in her book - The Story of St Albans, on page 128.
While scrolling through Raakh (a favorite novel by Tarar Sahab), you come across a cursory reference of some real Princess residing in Model Town Lahore back in 1950s. The event does not cause an interruption to the flow of the story and you go on. Chapters later, while winding up the tale, there is this reference of some grave in Gulberg Christian Graveyard, Lahore where the cenotaph is in three languages, one of which is Persian… why Persian? We are told, it was the official language in Maharaja Ranjeet Singh’s Court…. What’s so special about this cenotaph? Here comes the twist; it belongs to one Princess Bamba Sutherland, the real granddaughter of Maharaja Ranjit Singh of Lahore!!!!
It was a hazy afternoon in Lahore, once me and Ladla took a stroll to visit the Christian Graveyard Gulberg, Lahore. We were led to the place and there existed in reality, the grave, the cenotaph and the detail in English, Urdu and Persian inscribed into the stone replicating the account depicted in the pages of Raakh. Princess Bamba Sutherland was the eldest daughter of Maharaja Duleep Singh and the last heir in the bloodline of Maharaja Ranjit Singh.
Further details can be referenced. Queen Vicotria’s Maharaja by Michael Alexander & Sushila Anand is a recommended read

This fourth piece, titled SCROLL, consists of clusters four male and four female figures and a permanently attached sketchbook containing sixty-nine double pages of notes and drawings, thoughts and ideas entered from time by the artist during the entirety of the time of the creation of this work.The entries were made from one side of the sculpture and from the other depending upon where the artist was working at the time of entry. Below the photograph of each double page is a transcription of the written words whenever appropriate.

Across Both Pages:
Here, at least, masculine and feminine has nothing to do with penises and vaginas…It is concept, a way of Being…Destruction and renewal v.s. Birth and rebirth…Denial v.s. acceptation…Thanatos v.s. Eros…death v.s. life…
Only at the moment of rebirth are Thanatos and Eros conjoined and that moment is orgasmic-revelation…Eros and Thanatos are one: Eros is the mother of Thanatos: Nothing more—nothing less. Acceptance. Tears of joy often accompany this rebirth for it is we ourselves who are reborn…In an instant life without metaphor is perceived, our place in it, and the sacred eternal nothingness of it all.
You do not know me—you cannot know me…I do not know myself. Something has been forgotten…or dismissed. We have misplaced the beginning…only the ending of our narrative remains. I write this without faith or comprehension…I am no Jeremiah…History will end…without witness…history will end…What, then, is an artist? A maker…what role does he play? entertainer? clown? pacifier?…stylist? broker? sycophant? collaborator?—TRAITOR? Codswallop! Art is not for sissies or money laundering…It is a force that can change the world…or save it. Have I become Misanthropic? If so I have outlived my worth.

Kazue took us all on a tour of this old building they were doing Pika-pika in. It seemed to have been a restaurant and was completely tilted and sloping down to one side. The owner had died and much of their stuff was still left in the house. The whole place was a bit creepy.
Due to the large area of the Barony of the Far West {Japan, Korea, Guam, and sometimes China} and the small SCA population {itnierant military and teachers of English} we rely heavily on pre-made scrolls we just print out, put names on and paint. Still, I enjoy the painting.
This exercise is meant to expand the thinking about guidelines even in Photoshop and therefore CorelDraw because of the sophisticated layers, sublayers and the dedicated guidelines in CorelDraw. It's always sad to see how much software is written without the study or even regard of others' applications. I don't use CorelDraw that much but every once in a while it is absolutely necessary to do some prep illustration in Corel and then drop a tiff into a Photoshop layer because of the extensive time element that can be trivialized in Corel.
The subject of the lesson is generating a paper scroll that can have text applied later. The concept was invented by a glassblower I know, James P. Clarke, Here is something like what I helped him with. It is a good carrier for a discussion of more sophisticated guidelines or even cheating guidelines:
The Scroll, Corel file is a demonstration of setting up advanced guidelines on the dedicated Guidelines layer in Corel. All objects applied to that dedicated layer will assume the assigned color and simple lines will assume the snap properties. The scroll guides were generated on a separate layer and then moved and dropped onto and become a sub-object on Corels Guidelines layer. Otherwise, create your own Guidelines layer in Photoshop.
Use the guideline scroll to develop your own paper object, color, texturize and antique it, like in the Scroll file.
The Scroll, Corel file shows the results of adding a text block, then an Envelope object to the text block and adding nodes to stretch and warp the enveloped text block. It is difficult to get the text to lay out realistically otherwise but you can handle it however you want.
Handwritten scroll on parchment, approximately 250 years old.
Contains the first 5 books in the bible (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy)
For rabbinical use. There's a picture of the Synagogue one above..
The person who wrote this has really good handwriting. And the words are even smaller than my mine!
My color process book is relatively straightforward, you can see most of it in its entirety on the first image.
It is 8 inches wide by approximately 70 inches long, give or take. i printed it out on the hp z3100 on hp heavyweight coated paper and it rocked. one test print, one final print, the binding went well.
michael trovela gave me some insight as to efficient ways of binding this (and also some bookcloth!). Originally i wanted to use either dowels or cardboard tubes, in the end i ended up going with his suggestion of bookbinder's board wrapped with bookcloth. I then scored the board into seven sections to create two hexagon handles (one flap goes inside).
The two handles go on opposite ends and then get sandwiched over the scroll with duotack on one side and pva glue on the other. The end result reads like a torah or any other similarly styled scroll, which, despite being a bit clunky, is really fun to read and feels really exciting in your hands. yay!

Admiralty House Ballroom ruin (6/19)
This is a sample of the whole album (Ballroom ruin) which can viewed at: www.flickr.com/photos/brize/sets/72157632198582081/
... elegantly-dressed guests coming out on to the verandah here to take a break from the dancing and for some fresh air on a hot evening, the men in dress uniform and the women in ball gowns ....
The former Ballroom building was part of former Admiralty House, in Admiralty House Park, Pembroke Parish, Bermuda. The Park is now a public space about two miles (3 Km) from Hamilton city between Spanish Point Road and the North Shore of Spanish Point. The ballroom is the only building that remains on the site of former Admiralty House.

ADMIRALTY HOUSE
"The property was given to the British Royal Navy as a gift by the Bermuda Government in 1800s. The British Navy constructed a state home for their Admirals who were posted at the nearby dockyards. The park also served as a navy hospital once. Admiralty House Park was used as the signal center by the British Royal Navy during the World War-II. This is when the intelligence officers here intercepted coded messages from ships sailing between UK and USA, and passed on the decoded messages to the Royal Naval Dockyard [on Ireland Island North in Sandys Parish] for taking appropriate actions. Once the British left the island handing over the property back to Bermuda Government in 1951, the main Admiralty House building was abandoned and later demolished. The only remaining part of the building today is the ballroom [i.e. seen here]. You can enjoy strolling through the colorful vegetation while exploring the ruins."
However, the building was made over to a Community Centre, after the Government took it over, but it must have been abandoned after that and then fallen into ruins There are now trespass notices on the building, though it is still easy to enter the building, so the quoted website text must have been written before the notices were put up, and not updated.
