These building and decorative materials are products of dry materials which, when mixed with liquid, set to form a hard surface. Besides plaster and stucco, these include asphalt, concrete, agglomerates, and terrazzo. Subjects are identified by material, and where appropriate, by bond, application, and surface finish. Pictures give a variety of periods, styles and weathered conditions. Terms and finishing techniques used in the captions are explained in the glossary.
