Talk:À la poupée

Lead is confusing
The first two sentences were very confusing to me until I read the Technique section. In particular, I assumed that "one for each colour" meant "one plate for each color", not "one wad of cloth for each color", as color printmaking often involves multiple plates (and of course you wouldn't use the same cloth for different ink colors). Then when I read the second sentence, I imagined some kind of complicated assembly-line process where the paper gets pressed by multiple plates in a single run. Once I read the Technique section, I realized that my understanding from the lead was completely wrong. Kaldari (talk) 19:28, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Frankly I think it is your preconceptions that are causing the trouble - probably most readers won't have these. I've adjusted to "technique for making colour prints by applying different ink colours to a single printing plate using ball-shaped wads of cloth, one for each colour." which makes this misunderstanding more difficult. 21:48, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
