Please briefly introduce the printmaking ... thank you.

Printmaking is a painting art with "printing" as the medium. As long as artists use knives, pens or other tools to draw, carve and corrode different plates such as metal, slate, wood block, cardboard, plastic plate and silk screen printing. , and then print their own works of art, it is considered a print. Printmaking originated from printing and eventually formed its own unique characteristics. Therefore, prints can never be equated with ordinary printed matter.

According to the plate-making method, prints are mainly divided into four types and five types. Four kinds refer to relief, intaglio, lithographic and perforated plates, and five kinds are comprehensive plates on them.

I found a demonstration, which is the woodcut masterpiece Four Horsemen by German master Diu Lei.
