This document discusses three printmaking techniques: mezzotint, which creates images through rubbing ink into roughened copper plates; etching, where an acid bites into a copper plate through a waxy ground; and mezzotint, an intaglio method that creates tonal or halftone effects through roughening the entire surface of a copper plate.
