Woodblock printing is a technique that uses a carved wooden surface to create an image on materials such as paper or cloth. Ink or paint is applied thinly to the carved surface, which is then pressed against the material to transfer the image. This method has been historically significant in various cultures for producing prints and textiles.
Mezzotint is a printmaking technique in which a copper or steel plate is roughened to produce a solid black print. The artist smooths specific areas of the plate to create a range of tones, from deep blacks to delicate grays and whites. By varying the degree of smoothing, the artist can achieve detailed gradations of light and shadow, resulting in prints with rich, velvety textures and subtle transitions between light and dark.
