subject: Seeing Images in Brass [print this page] Beside a lion pictured at the feet of a knight means that he died in battle, another thing they found out was that a hound at someone's feet meant that he liked to hunt with dogs.Brassing is not an ordinary concept in the US especially since art is just catching up here. When it comes to rubbing this can be used to copy decorative engravings, manhole covers, and even etchings on tombstones. This is a hobby you could enjoy even if the couple needed four hours to accomplish the rubbing of Sir d' Abernon. Schools and art shows have invited the couple to display several of their rubbings.
