Understanding the technique
Lithography is a form of planographic printmaking. It transfers ink from a plate to paper by using the different properties of the drawn and undrawn areas. When examining an individual work, the tones of the impression, the paper’s condition, margins, signature and edition markings can also offer useful clues.
This is a general explanation of the technique. It does not describe the specific production process or condition of this work.
