Glossary

This technique is caracterised by the simultaneous creation of the paper and the engraving. The artist engraves and sculpts the image as a bas-relief with diverse possibilities in terms of materials. A flexible mould is then produced from this creation. The sheet of paper composed of a cotton vellum is laid down in the chosen format on a medium in the press. The mould is coloured in "à la poupée", a manual technique using a small wad of fabric called a "doll" ("poupée") for each print, before being positioned on the paper paste.
Aquatint is an etching process through which different tones are obtained. A pre-emptively grained metal plate is covered with varnish then plunged in an acid bath. The aquatint allows for the artist to obtain different nuances by playing with the intensity and thickness of the varnish.
Xylography - also known under the name woodcut - is an ancient engraving process using an engraved wood matrix. Inked, this matrix allows for a reproduction of the image. This technique, also used to reproduce written works, is considered the ancestor of printing. During the 20th century, it has been used by German Expressionist artists.
The B.A.T or "ready to print" copy is the first printed copy once the artist is satisfied with the result. It is always the reference for the rest of the print run. This means that the artist compares the other proofs to the "ready to print" copy to check the colours for example.
This means that the engraving has been produced by another hand than the artist's. Throughout the 20th century, famous lithographers such as Charles Sorlier or Fernand Mourlot have created engravings on artists' behalf.
Etching is an engraving technique using a copper plate covered with a fine coat of varnish. It is drawn upon by simply scratching the varnish then the plate is dipped in acid; the acid is stopped by the varnish, but it corrodes the copper everyhere the varnish has been scratched upon and hollows out the metal.
Generic term referring to a print produced with a plate (made of wood, metal or stone), engraved and inked beforehand, printed on paper via a press.
The artist proof is a print run produced as a supplement to the numbered print run. These prints, not numbered, are usually meant for the artist's own use.
"Not to sell" proofs. Proofs annotated "hors commerce" ("not to sell") are generally printed apart from a current edition reserved for collaborators who contributed to the production of the print run.
An inkjet print is created by a contactless printer which distributes ink droplets on a surface to create an image.
Process consisting of printing, without ink, the incised zones of a metallic printing plate, which creates an embossed print on paper.
This term refers to several production methods using the principle of incision or hollowing out of a medium (copper, zinc, wood) destined to be inked in order to produce an image.
Offset comes from the term "set off". Its production includes several successive steps before the printing process. The final print work is reproduced on a medium - initially an engraved metal plate - where zones which are to be inked are defined. This plate is inked then a cylinder or roll - called "blanket" - is covered with a rubber sheet and transfers the ink onto paper.
Engraving technique in which copper plates are engraved via a photosensitive varnish exposed to sunlight. The result is a partial dissolution of the protective varnish. Once placed in an acid bath, the copper plate is engraved, like an etching. This technique is close to the one developed by Nicéphore Niepce. We often call these the engravings derived from these techniques photogravures.
Lithography is a printing technique allowing for the creation and reproduction of graphic works based on drawings reproduced on limestone.
The linocut is an engraving process close to the woodcut, using a linoleum matrix. Inked, thix matrix allows for a reproduction of the image. This technique has been used extensively by Matisse and Picasso.
Print produced by applying paint or ink on a flat metal, glass or plastic sheet. The painted image is transferred onto paper either through manual friction, or via a press.
A crust or fine film on a sculpture that is generally blue or blueish green, formed by natural oxydation; natural buffing of a surface, for example a wood surface, produced by age or wear.
Method consisting of applying paint onto zones cut out of fine material, such as paper, copper or plastic. The cut-out material prevents the paint or ink from running.
Engraving technique using a fine steel point to incise the metallic plate.
Screenprinting or silkscreen is a printing technique which uses textile stencils partially coated with a type of glue. The affixed stencil forms open zones in the mesh which transfer the ink or other printable materials which can be imprinted through the mesh.
Meaning that the artist signed the medium of the print but not each of the proofs by hand. His or her signature is therefore reproduced at the same time as the subject.
Reproductions in several copies of a matrix, engraving, lithograph or etching via printing, contact or projection.
