Glossary Of Art Terms [4]

I Impression In art, generally refers to a quick sketch or simple rendering of an image or scene, intended to capture the "impression" of the moment. Also refers to an indentation created by pressing a hard shape into a softer surface.
Imprint Similar to an impression, a mark made by pressing an object onto a flexible substrate that will then retain the reverse image of that object.
Inscription May refer to a dedication in a book or other published material. Also refers to the act of inscribing something into a surface - using a sharp point to carve words or images into a hard surface, similar to etching.
Intaglio printmaking Intaglio is the reverse of Relief printmaking. A design is created on a rigid plate, but the ink is poured over the entire surface and then wiped from the raised portions, leaving ink only in the recesses. As a result, the raised portions will remain white in the print, while the recesses will appear on the paper.
