<g>Petrarch's</g> Laura was delineated by a contemporary in this manner
and in the time of <g>Michael Angelo</g> the process was still in use. These styles
were then introduced into Germany from Italy, under what particular name, we
know not. In Italy they are called "<g>Stile</g>", but even they never seem at any
time to have been the universally acknowledged drawing material.

About the same period the pen came into use as a drawing- as well as
writing-material, to which were added, in the most flourishing days of painting,
black chalk and red chalk which enjoyed extensive use. The Italians obtained
the best red chalk from Germany and the best black chalk from Spain. <g>Vasari</g>,
speaking of an artist of the sixteenth century, especially remarks that he understood
how to use style, pen, black chalk and red chalk with equal dexterity.

To this period belongs also the discovery of black lead and with it the
production of an entirely new writing- and drawing-material--<g>The Lead Pencil</g>.
