sand-grain mezzotint (printing process) (mezzotint (process), engraving (printing process), ... Processes and Techniques (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: A printing process developed in the 20th century in which mezzotint-like tone is achieved from sandpaper grain. The process was developed as a way to avoid the laborious process of rocking the plate. The plate is passed through the press several times with a sheet of sandpaper; the grains of sand physically displace dots of copper, forming ink-retaining burrs. |

Additional Notes: |

Chinese (traditional) ..... 發展於二十世紀的印刷技法,利用砂紙顆粒製作出類似美柔汀的調子。此一技法的發展,可省去費力搖磨印版的程序。在印版上放置一張砂紙,以印刷機來回按壓數次,砂紙顆粒在銅版上形成細點刻紋,可填入油墨。 |
Dutch ..... Een in de 20e eeuw ontwikkeld drukprocedé waarbij de mezzotint-achtige schakering wordt bereikt met behulp van schuurpapier. Het procedé werd ontwikkeld als een manier om het arbeidsintensieve plaatschommelen te omzeilen. De plaat wordt diverse keren door de pers gehaald met een vel schuurpapier; de zandkorrels verdringen koperkorreltjes waardoor inkthoudende bramen ontstaan. |
