What is The Print in the Western World : an Introductory History about?

<p><P><i>The Print in the Western World</i> is a comprehensive history of the print from its origins in the fifteenth through the late twentieth century. A source of inspiration to many great painters, such as Titian, Rembrandt, and Manet, printmaking has established its own criteria of aesthetic excellence as well as its own expressive language, both of which are explored here. Scholars and print collectors will find in this well-written and generously illustrated book a valuable reference, students a lucid survey, and art lovers an informative introduction to the history of the print in Europe and America.<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; More than 700 illustrations, forty-nine of them in color, show the evolution of the relief, intaglio, planographic, and stencil processes through the centuries. Giving detailed treatment to the work of five master printmakers&mdash;Albrecht D&uuml;rer, Rembrandt van Rijn, Francisco Goya, Pablo Picasso, and Jasper Johns&mdash;the book also discusses in depth numerous other artists, such as Martin Schongauer, Andrea Mantegna, Hendrik Goltzius, Jacques Callot, Giovanni Battista Piranesi, William Hogarth, Honor&eacute; Daumier, Edouard Manet, Paul Gauguin, Ed
