Like-new first-edition hardcover. H.N. Abrams, 1976. 611 pages.
Explores the development of the graphic arts from the earliest examples of true prints made in the far East over a millennium ago to the latest experiments with new materials that have released the print from the flat surface of the sheet of paper and allowed tit to assume surprising three-dimensional forms. Every technique of printmaking is covered, from the major processes of woodcut, intaglio, lithography, mezzotint, and silkscreen, to less common processes such as the monotype. Many of the works of art illustrated in 'The Art Of the Print" have never been reproduced before, but landmark works by older masters of printmaking such as Rembrandt, Durer, Goya, Hogarth, Piranesi, Blake, Picasso, and Matisse are amply represented.
