Plaster Print Test On A Line-only Etching: Success. It Looks Fantastically Crisp, Light And Heavy Lines

Plaster print test on a line-only etching: success. It looks fantastically crisp, light and heavy lines alike. Plate is “The Storytellers”, a from a print exchange years past. I think I have the plaster mix and pour correct - though I didn’t mix enough for this one. There’s a bit of a halo in the border from the second pour. #printmaking #etching #intaglio #plaster

Astonishingly, this is from 1897 (by Wilhelm Schulz, published in the German satirical magazine Simplicissimus). For more information see Comic Art 9 (Buenaventura Press, Fall 2007): 184–95.
