Intaglio Printing The family of printing and printmaking techniques in which the image is incised into a surface and the incised line or sunken area holds the ink. It is the direct opposite of a relief print.
Copper or zinc plates are usually used as a surface or matrix, and the incisions are created by etching, engraving, drypoint, aquatint or mezzotint. Collagraphs may also be printed as intaglio plates. Intaglio printmaking emerged in Europe, the earliest known surviving examples originating from 15th Century. The technique was extensively used in art production. Albrecht Dürer, William Blake, Francisco Goya, Rembrandt and Max Klinger are, among other things, renowned for their intaglio artwork. |
