Breaking the Mould: the First 100 Years of Lithography by Michael Twyman
This volume addresses the changes brought about by lithography in the design and production of a wide range of graphic material: books, prints, music, maps, and ephemera. Underpinning the text is the view that lithographic printers and their co-workers revealed limitations in the capabilities of earlier methods of print production by exploring the range of opportunities offered by the new process. Professor Twtman demonstrates how these print workers responded to the economy, directness, versatility, and autographic qualities of lithography and how some of the techniques they used led to the blurring of distinctions between printing processes.| SKU | Unavailable |
