AN OLD WORLD WINTER HOLIDAY SEASON.
Pochoir Exhibit
John G. White Corridor
The Cleveland Public Library has a number of beautiful books exhibiting the
art of pochoir. Pochoir is a stenciling technique that dates back to prehistoric
Europe and images found in China along the Asian silk route. Pochoir became
popular in Paris during the early part of the 20th century. The vivid colors
and elaborate designs reflect the “Belle Epoque,” a time when Paris
was viewed as the center of the fashion world.
An Old World Winter Holiday Season Exhibit
Treasure Room
On display are images of European winter holiday traditions such as the Yule
Log, Mistletoe, Boar’s Head, Christmas Goat, humming and caroling. Many
of these traditions date back hundreds or thousands of years.
