# Baize

Baize is a coarse woollen (or in cheaper variants cotton) cloth, similar in texture to felt, but more durable.

## History

A mid-17th-century English ditty – much quoted in histories of ale and beer brewing in England – refers to 1525:
   Hops, heresies, bays, and beer; Came into England all in one year.
Heresies refers to the Protestant Reformation, while bays is the Elizabethan spelling for baize (though bay and baize eventually came to describe two similar but distinguishable types of cloth, as described below).

## Applications

Baize is often used on billiard tables to cover the slate and cushions, and is also used on different kinds of gaming tables (usually gambling) such as those for blackjack, baccarat, craps and other casino games. It is also found as a writing surface, particularly on 19th century pedestal desks.
The surface finish of baize is coarse, thus increasing rolling resistance and perceptibly slowing billiard balls. Baize is available with and without a perceptible nap. Snooker, in which understanding nap effects is part of the game, uses the nappy variety, while pool and carom billiards use the napless type.
For gaming use, baize is traditionally dyed green, in mimicry of a lawn (see Cue sport, "History"), though wide variety of table colours have become accepted. Bay was similar material to baize, but lighter in weight and with a shorter nap.
* A closeup of the weave of worsted baize. This particular sample is Simonis 760, a high-end pool cloth; it is napless, unlike snooker cloth.
* A similar cloth sample as in the previous image, from further away and with a pool ball for scale.

## Idioms and catchphrases

* "Let's get the boys on the baize!" has been a catchphrase of BBC TV snooker presenter Rob Walker since 2008.
* At one time, "the green baize door" (a door to which cloth had been tacked to deaden noise) in a house separated the servants' quarters from the family's living quarters; hence the phrase's usage as a metonym for domestic service. Moving men in the children's book The Railway Children wore green baize aprons.

# Nikola Martinoski

Nikola Martinoski (born Nicolache Martin; Aromanian: Nicola Martinoschi, Macedonian: Никола Мартиноски; 18 August 1903 – 7 February 1973), sometimes spelled Martinovski (Aromanian: Martinovschi, Macedonian: Мартиновски), was a Macedonian Yugoslav painter of Aromanian ethnicity. He is considered as a founder of contemporary Macedonian art. Martinoski is best known for his painting titled Mother with Child, which, although first created in the 1930s, was not completed until the 1960s. He is also known as "The Doctor" for the many paintings he donated to modern art.

## Early life

Martinoski was born Nicolache Martin in 1903 to an Aromanian family in Kruševo (Aromanian: Crushuva; at the time part of the Ottoman Empire). He developed an interest in painting at a young age and attended art classes in the workshop of Dimitar Andonov-Papradinski, an icon painter in Skopje. Prior to 1921, he was constantly on the move. Finally, Nikola settled down in Bucharest, Romania and attended the Academy of Fine Arts, now known as the Bucharest National University of Arts, from which he graduated in 1927.

## Years in Paris

Martinoski spent two years (1927–1928) in Paris at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière, which is famous for former students Amedeo Modigliani and Boris Anrep and the Académie Ranson with artists like the Polish painter Moise Kisling and Roger Bissiere, who acted as mentors. This period had a major impact on his life and style as a painter.

## Life in Skopje

Martinoski came back to Skopje brimming with avant-garde ideas about art. He developed a very specific expressionistic style and started dealing with social themes rather than portraits. Nikola soon became a member of the Belgrade group Oblik.
His first individual exhibition was in 1929 in Skopje. Afterwards, he started exhibiting in other cities such as Belgrade, Zagreb and Paris. While he continued drawing, painting, and exhibiting, Martinoski also began creating large murals. Later, he established the Artistic Gallery located in Skopje (now known as the National Gallery of Macedonia) and won numerous awards.
Martinoski died on 7 February 1973, at the age of sixty-nine in Skopje, then in Yugoslavia. He gave sixty-two of his paintings to Kruševo as a parting gift. His home in Kruševo is now a gallery where a small number of his works are exhibited.

## Centenary of Martinoski's birth

In 2003, the National Gallery of Macedonia completed the project "100 years from Martinoski's birth". The exhibition featured paintings that had never been publicly shown before because they were part of 116 paintings that Martinoski left to his family in a nondescript box.

## Painting style

Many of Martinoski's works were greatly influenced by medieval fresco art and modern Parisian school crisscross. However, his strongest artistic creations were portraits.
