Salt was a commodity of great importance in the ancient past, just as it is today. Its roles in promoting human health and in making food more palatable are well-known; in peasant societies it also plays a very important role in the preservation of foodstuffs and in a range of industries.

Dit 'eerbetoon' vertelt het verhaal van de verborgen meesterwerken van Jean Colin.
