Taken from curatorial worksheet: This pen was given to Prime Minister Steven Harper by President Nicolas Sarkozy of France at the 2009 NATO Summit held April 3-4, 2009 in Strasbourg, France and Kehl, Germany. The Summit marked the return of France to full membership in the NATO alliance’s (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) military command after a 43 year absence, to which Harper said made it a “very historic summit”. In addition, the summit coincided with the 60th anniversary of the establishment of the NATO. The 28 NATO Heads of State discussed the agenda which included: Afganistan War; Relations with Russia; France’s reintegration, and; new strategic concept.

Fonction

Used to draw or write with ink, usually on paper.

Technique

Taken from curatorial worksheet: A fountain pen uses liquid ink. It stores this liquid ink in the body of pen in a reservoir. A feed system, which consists of a long slit along the inside of the pen to the nip, uses capillary action (the movement of a liquid along the surface of a solid caused by the attraction of molecules of the liquid to the molecules of the solid) to draw ink into the nip (or head) of the pen. This system also incorporates fins which store ink. This stored ink allows for a consistent amount of ink to transfer from pen to paper regardless of the speed at which the user writes. S.T. Dupont began producing high end luggage and leather goods in 1872. Almost a century later, in 1973, the Dupont pen was introduced. It, alongside Dupont’s lighters and leatherwear, became a status symbol.
