Title: Kuroi Ame (Black Rain) Image size: 12.5cm x 17.4cm Paper size: 25.5cm x 28.8cm Framing: Unframed Medium: Mezzotint Mezzotint is an acid free process that involves the artist 'rocking' a copper plate with a specialist tool to rough the surface of the copper up enough to ensure that when it is inked in the printmaking process it holds, and prints, a rich deep black. At this point the plate is ready to be burnished to bring out the image. Burnishing involves polishing the rough surface with a small ballpoint tool. The smoother the final mark; the whiter the final mark will print. Limited Edition: Yes Edition Size: 3/20 Paper Type: Somerset Satin Soft White Show more
