Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate world of photogravure, a photographic printing process that produces stunningly detailed images with rich tonal values. The author, a passionate advocate for this often-overlooked technique, guides readers through the process, from selecting the right materials and preparing negatives to the delicate art of etching and printing copper plates. Emerging in the late 19th century as an alternative to traditional engraving methods, photogravure offered photographers a means to create high-quality reproductions of their work. This book explores the historical context of photogravure, contrasting the "dust grain" method with the more modern "screen" approach, which utilizes a fine grid to achieve similar results. The author emphasizes the importance of precision and attention to detail throughout the process, offering practical tips and insights gleaned from personal experience. Readers will gain an understanding of the technical aspects of photogravure, including the use of specialized tools, chemicals, and printing presses. More importantly, they will discover the creative possibilities of this unique medium, which allows for a high degree of control and artistic expression. Ultimately, this book reveals the magic of photogravure, demonstrating its ability to capture the subtle nuances of light and shadow, and to transform photographs into exquisite works of art. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282549862_0
