Information about the Print
Objects drawn in the studio within a lattice grid thrown by the shadows from the window.
The
design was drawn on the steel plate with a lithographic
crayon; the greasy content of the crayon acting
as an acid resist, so that the ‘white’ areas are bitten away and will not print.
For printing, grey oil colour was first applied to the plate and an impression printed on damp paper.
After
cleaning, the plate was re-inked in black and
printed over the still damp grey impression. |
