⢠A print is an image printed from an
engraved plate, wooden block, or
similar surface.
⢠After the death of her cat, Kiki Smith
developed a print in various states, or
stages, until it was finished.
⢠Prints allow artists to investigate the
meaning of mechanically reproduced
imagery.

7. The Print and its Earliest UsesThe Print and its Earliest Uses
1 of 41 of 4
⢠In printmaking, the process creates an
impression of an image that has been
transferred through pressure onto
paper from a matrix, or the surface
onto which the design has been
created.
⢠Multiple impressions from the same
matrix are called an edition.
8. The Print and its Earliest UsesThe Print and its Earliest Uses

⢠Artists often reserve a small number of
additional proofs or trial impressions
for personal use.
⢠The world's earliest known printed
book, the Diamond Sutra, was found in
Dunhuang, China.
ď§ Images were originally intended to be
mass produced and distributed despite
only one surviving work.

⢠Before paper was used widespread,
pictorial designs were still printed onto
fabric.
⢠When the Gutenberg press was
invented between 1435 and 1455,
printmaking soon followed.
ď§ The Forty-Two Line Bible featured
colorful painted designs in the
marginalia and capitals.

⢠The Nuremberg Chronicle was
published by Anton Koberger and
contains more than 1,800 pictures.
ď§ It was printed in a black-and-white and
color edition.
ď§ Color would have been applied by hand
and was therefore more expensive.

⢠A design is drawn on the surface of the
woodblock and parts that are to be
printed in white are cut away with a
knife or chisel.
⢠Thick, sticky ink that will not flow into
the hollows is then applied to the
block's surface.
⢠Artists can achieve dramatic contrast
between light and dark.

⢠Erich Heckel, a German Expressionist,
used the expressive potential of
woodcut in his Fränzi Reclining.
⢠Color block printing technology
developed by Chinese artists in the
mid-eighteenth century was becoming
popularized in Japan.
ď§ They were known as nishiki-e images
due to their resemblance to brocade.

⢠Suzuki Harunobu's designs were early
examples of what would become known
as ukiyo-e, "pictures of the transient
world of everyday life."
ď§ They portrayed women of great beauty,
such as Two Courtesans.
⢠Graphic contrast between the inside and
outside of the harimise reflects the
principlesof yin and yang.

ď§ The Fickle Type is a depiction of typical
subject matter in ukiyo-e prints.
ď§ Traditionally, printing required the equal
and combined efforts of publisher,
designer, carver, and printer.
ď§ This depiction of Utamaro's studio is a
mitate, or fanciful picture.

⢠European artists revived the art of
woodcut due to the introduction of
Japanese prints in the nineteenth
century.
⢠Van Gogh was an enthusiastic collector
of prints and would occasionally copy
elements of them directly.

Eisen) is an example.

⢠Mary Cassatt was most impressed with
the intimate depiction of the world of
women found in Japanese woodcut.

Head in her own prints.

and printed textiles as well as a flat

31. Wood EngravingWood Engraving
1 of 21 of 2
⢠Wood engraving involves fine, narrow
grooves cut into a block that leave a
"white line" when printed.
ď§ The grainy side of the wood is used
instead of the smooth side, as end grain
can be cut in any direction without
splintering.
32. Wood EngravingWood Engraving

⢠The engraving depicting Exploration of
the Colorado River of the West was
copied by a wood engraver from an
original sketch.
ď§ It presents some of the first views of the
great American Western canyonlands.

Powell, Exploration of the Colorado River of the West and its Tributaries.

34. LinocutLinocut

⢠In linocut, the block is made of
linoleum instead of wood.
ď§ Linoleum is easier to cut but wears
down more quickly under pressure.
⢠It can be colored using a series of
different blocks, one for each color,
aligned via the process of
registration.
35. LinocutLinocut

⢠Elizabeth Catlett's Sharecropper is
comprised of three separate linoleum
blocks: black, dark green, and burnt
sienna.
ď§ Rather than portraying the reality of
sharecroppers in conditions of slavery,
Catlett shows a determined, strong
figure representative of a commitment
to social change.

37. Intaglio ProcessesIntaglio Processes
⢠In intaglio, areas to be printed are
below the surface of the plate and are
filled with ink.
ď§ The surface of the plate is wiped clean
and a powerful roller picks up the ink in
the depressed grooves.
⢠Modeling and shading are achieved by
hatching, cross-hatching, and
stippling.
40. EngravingEngraving
⢠Engraving is accomplished by pushing
a V-shaped, metal burin across a
metal plate.
⢠Line engravings were often used to
illustrate books prior to photography.
ď§ The reproduction of Turner's Snow
Storm: Steamboat off a Harbor's Mouth
successfully captures the play of light
and dark in the original.
41. After J. M. W. Turner, Snow Storm: Steamboat off a Harbor's Mouth (1842), engraved by
R. Brandard.

42. EtchingEtching
1 of 31 of 3
⢠Etching is capable of capturing a
sketchlike quality of line.
⢠In the process, a metal plate is first
coated with an acid-resistant ground.
ď§ The ground can be hard for detailing or
soft for easy exposure.
⢠Afterward, the plate is set in an acid
bath, where exposed areas are etched
by acid.
43. EtchingEtching
2 of 32 of 3
⢠Individual lines can be controlled via
stopping out a section by applying a
varnish or another coat of ground.
⢠When the plate is ready for printing, a
solvent removes the ground and the
print is made using the intaglio
method.
44. EtchingEtching
3 of 33 of 3
⢠Rembrandt's The Angel Appearing to
the Shepherds explores the capabilities
and limits of etching.
ď§ The artist built up the black background
with careful, intricate cross-hatching so
that only areas bathed in the angel's
light remain white.
ď§ More traditional drawing methods were
used to model the figures.
45. Rembrandt van Rijn, The Angel Appearing to the Shepherds.

46. DrypointDrypoint
⢠Drypoint line is scratched across a
copper plate with a metal point that is
pulled across a surface, leaving burrs
along the sides of a line.
ď§ Burrs wear off quickly and rarely allow
for editions of more than 25.
⢠Mary Cassatt's The Map (The Lesson)
exhibits the softness of line created
through this method.

48. The Creative ProcessThe Creative Process
⢠Four-Color Intaglio: Yuji Hiratsuka's
Miracle Grow Hypnotist
ď§ Whereas Utamaro used separate blocks
for each color, Hiratsuka used an
etching process allowing for sections not
requiring a new color to be blocked out.
ď§ The work explores an enigmatic figure
who invokes creationary forces, claiming
to make a cactus grow but actually
using Miracle-Gro to do so.

52. Mezzotint and AquatintMezzotint and Aquatint
1 of 21 of 2
⢠Mezzotint is a negative process in
which a plate is ground with a rocker,
then lightened by scraping away the
burr according to the desired image.
⢠J.M.W. Turner used mezzotint
masterfully to produce rich, dark tones.
ď§ Rather than lines of ink, washes give the
impression of the scene from Ship in a
Storm.

54. Mezzotint and AquatintMezzotint and Aquatint
2 of 22 of 2
⢠Aquatint involves coating a surface
with a porous ground through which
acid can penetrate.
ď§ Acid baths create a sandpaperlike
texture, and line is added later through
etching or drypoint.
⢠Jane Dickson's Stairwell is pure
aquatint in three colors.
ď§ It represents psychological torment.

56. LithographyLithography
1 of 31 of 3
⢠This process is the chief planographic
(flat) printmaking process, meaning
that no surface is raised or depressed
to hold ink.
ď§ It relies on the fact that grease and
water don't mix.
⢠This method was discovered by Alois
Senefelder to commercial purpose, as
the stone was never etched.
57. LithographyLithography

depict current events.

murder of citizens of 12 rue Transnonain

(ULAE) was established in 1957, and

was Jim Dine.

61. Silkscreen PrintingSilkscreen Printing
1 of 21 of 2
⢠Formally known as serigraphs, no
heavy machinery is needed to create
prints.
⢠Principles are similar to those required
for stenciling.
ď§ In proper technique, shapes are not cut
out but glue is painted in areas where
the artist does not want ink to pass
through.

⢠Serigraphy is the newest form of

⢠Enter the Rice Cooker by Roger
Shimomura addresses the tension

tradition.

64. MonotypesMonotypes
1 of 21 of 2
⢠Monotypes use a plate and press in
the making of a unique image that can
never be reproduced exactly.
⢠Artists use printer's ink or paints that
are transferred to paper via pressure.
⢠Foreground elements must be painted
first, as the top layer of paint becomes
the bottom layer when printed.
65. MonotypesMonotypes

apply pressure.
