Estamp

[Wladzislaw]

In connection with the periodic and strange discussions Being in charge of this subject. We present the basic concepts.

Estamp (from the French estampe) - graphic work of art created by means of the printed impression. By way of execution is divided into a high, deep, flat and silk-screen printing.

High print - technology of engraving in which the surface of printing plate engraving (cut grooves). On the surface of a roller or sponge to apply paint, which does not fall into the grooves. To form presses paper on which turns the surface covered with print unpainted lines.

In this technique are: woodcutting (it is the same woodcut), lino (linocut), engraving on plaster , engraving on cardboard and tsinkogravyura.

Gravure printing - the way in which the printing elements deepened. At the plate, engraved paint filled groove, and from the surface of ink is washed off. The deeper the groove, the more paint goes with the plate to print. Good passes halftones.

In this way, are the following types of engraving: aquatint, etching, white bar , lavis, mezzotint, soft ground , dotted engraving , premaxillary engraving , dry needle , etched bar , rezervazh.

lithography - lithography.

Screen printing - silk screen (another name - serigraphy).

For manufacture of Print can be used several ways of gravure printing forms for processing.

[Wladzislaw]

There have been issues in contrast to lithography and serigraphy. Examples:

Salvador Dali. Archangel. Lithography. 1973.

Albrecht Demits. Face. serigraphy. 1991.

Not even small photos can be seen significant external difference between these works.

_______________

There is a (common) term, "hand print" (hand print)
Soda includes all the traditional manual techniques, which were described in the topic Marousi "terminology" (like shortness LSR), plus for example such as "rezinovay stamp" (produced mechanically using the manual sketch and causing manually)

I understand Marusya, but in terms of admission to major exhibitions are always very spelled out permissible techniques of execution, razmepy ETC. and you can always iozvonit (or emalnut), ask. describing the materials and technology .. Although ktalogah often in general (even in a very solid, big and a two-volume) techniques do not indicate (very surprised.) So what is the name (practice) does not matter. (Would be called so. As adopted at a particular vystyvke in konkretnoystrane, so it was clear)
My advice: be easier to specify the maximum in the title of engineering materials used (and even used tools and pisposobleniya if this new technology.)

Literature on the subject.

Zorin LN Estamp: Guide to graphics and printing techniques. M., 2004.

Well, and summarizes the key concepts, with examples.
There is a sale on "Ozone" and "Bolero".

Adaryukov VY essay on the history of lithography in Russia //Apollo. 1912. № 1.

Also, a separate publication.

Kornilov PE Etching in Russia XVII - XX centuries. 1953.

Korostin AF Russian lithograph XIX century. 1953.

E. Hollerbach History of prints and lithographs in Russia. M., 2004.

There is a sale on "Ozone" and "Bolero". But he did not read.

Polyakov The Draw European graphics from Goya to Picasso. Moscow, 2002. 284 pp. ISBN 5-94183-005-X.

Those interested Prints highly recommend. The author not only understands the actual prints, but he and the collector. Have described the real thing, occasionally bringing and prices. The book describes the lottery's original schedule, printed in magazines, and books are mentioned. It would be good for beginners, but seriously interested.

Wladzislaw,

Can you explain the term "etching"? For a complete set - it is quite often used now.

Etching in French "eau-forte", literally "strong water"=hydrochloric acid, cf. the old expression "aqua regia") - a chemical engraving (intaglio).
Zinc or copper plate covered with a special varnish, then the artist "paints" for this polish (and, therefore, scratched it). When the drawing is ready, the board is placed in acid, which erodes the bare varnish (scratched) the place and thus create grooves. These grooves are filled with special paint.
To obtain an imprint of the press is placed pre-soaked sheet of paper, too special, but at him - etching plate, the ink which is transferred to the paper.
 
I hung out example etching, the image lies in color (well, actually it is black and white), but look at the upper right corner (the right for the viewer) can be clearly seen from the edges of the deepening of the board (relief), which are characteristic of intaglio printing.
Naturally, I explain? If you have questions, please, I'll try to answer.

[Черномашенцев Владимир]

I think that now the word etching is often referred to all such printed products, including offset printing.
I often met: "License plate etching, signed by the artist so and so."
And there has been offset with watercolors.

This is a mistake, or you can, and so to speak? After all, words often change over time its meaning. Or words change meaning, migrating to another country.

No, it is impossible to speak, it is illiterate.

It is necessary to add that after the etching plate is often the process of completing, not just scratch the needles, but shtihelyami cut and trimmed and sanded nazhdachkoy some parts. Lacquered and scratching on it, followed by etching may be carried out at the plate multiple times.

If you just protsarapat drawing, there is no need to do etching, you can use acid-free technology - "dry needle".

Example:

Chas Laborde (Charles Laborde). Dance. Drypoint, with hand coloring of the author. 1924.

This expression is not a mistake. All the etchings, numbered (all hand-print-author podnomerami) It is not clear what there LSR has in mind ..
