Help[edit]

If this item is to be used, it need to be translated into more languages, but with no proper definition and no links to other sources, it's hard to know how to translate it. Missvain: Can you help explain what this material is? Is it just a short form of cardboard (Q389782)? If not, could you point me to the relevant record in the Art & Architecture Thesaurus?

It's art board. You can see a definition here: Oxford Dictionary. Board has been used for centuries. I have used board when I painted in the past. (cc: User:Multichill and User:Jane023) Missvain (talk) 06:13, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And I know that uses book binding as an example, but it is a harder form of cardboard, used also, primarily, for painting. Almost like corrugated cardboard. Missvain (talk) 06:15, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I added the Dutch term and AAT id nr. Jane023 (talk) 10:49, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
