This book deals with the techniques of relief and intaglio engraving, clearly explained and abundantly illustrated. After a first chapter on the history of engraving, it explains the difference between engraving and printmaking, and develops the notions of printing, the artist’s signature, expertise and authentication, as well as the conservation of these fragile works on paper. The various techniques for engraving and then printing the dies are then described in detail. These themes will appeal to people new to engraving as well as artists, art historians, collectors, gallery owners, restorers and, in general, anyone interested in the world of engraving. .
