The invention of printmaking was revolutionary because it first started from the Chinese and then was inspired by the Europeans.

Image result for printmaking art

I found this printmaking interesting because it shows the different contrast of the work and that because of the space that is around it. In this printmakig, I noticed that in the background, half of it is black and the other half is white. I also noticed that there are multiple lines on the picture. I wonder how the artist make the contrast of the colors for half of the picture. What if there is only a white background?
