Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
Biography
The earliest works of Pierre Reymond, born circa 1513, are dated 1534. He was twice consul in Limoges, in 1560 and 1567. He signed himself Raymon, Rexmon, Rexmond, or Reymon, spellings in which x and y are interchangeable, as in Limousin script. The initials P.R. usually indicate workshop pieces. The workshop was particularly active in producing tableware and caskets.
Pierre Reymond's compositions are indebted to a wide spectrum of German, Dutch, and Italian engravings, as well as to woodcuts in French illustrated books and patterns of scrollwork and grotesques by artists of the school of Fontainebleau. The figures on his enamels, outlined in rigid black contours, suggest that his models were transferred to the copper plate by way of pricked tracings. Reymond died sometime after 1584.
