In 1862, the famous Spanish luthier Antonio de Torres created a guitar with back and sides of papier-mâché. In the 21st century, the Italian guitarist Federica Artuso recorded the album called Papier-Mâché where she plays on replicas of the Torres guitar built by Fabio Zontini. I learned about this from the Radio Clásica programme La guitarra de papel (broadcast on 16 January 2026).
