ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
ETCHING
Etching is an intaglio printmaking process. To make an impression, a copper or zinc plate coated with an acid-resistant varnish is required. A drawing is made on this plate using a steel needle. The plate is then immersed in a 10% solution of nitric acid, which etches out the material in the areas exposed by the needle. The impression resembles a pen drawing.
