Invented in Munich in 1798 by Aloys Senefelder, lithography involves drawing or brushing the design with a greasy, lithographic ink on to a specially prepared and smoothed limestone which is kept moist. The stone (lithography means 'drawing on stone') is then inked with lithographic ink which only adheres to those areas of the stone previously fixed with lithographic ink, the rest of the ink is repelled by the water. The stone is then printed from in a flat-bed lithographic press.) |
