"The book shows contemporary artists working in the four main printmaking techniques. Step by step photographs reveal the way in which relief prints, etchings, engravings, lithographs and screenprints are made. There are many examples of work by artists past and present, while the relationship between originals and reproductions is explored, including a brief introduction to commercial processes. In the final chapter the author offers some simple instructions for beginners encouraged to start printmaking themselves at home."--book cover
