Gronvespudi: From Plate to Print
A Czech-language guide to traditional printmaking, covering presses, plates, ink, paper, etching, engraving, linocut, woodcut, and edition handling.
Field notes
The guide treats printmaking as a sequence of observable workshop decisions rather than a glossary of techniques. It specifies checking pressure through the plate-edge relief, keeping the nearest felt thin and dense, and recognizing the soft dark line produced by drypoint burr. The homepage also distinguishes the two broad mechanisms: ink held in incised lines for intaglio, and ink left on the untouched surface for relief printing. One image is identified as thematic rather than documentary.
