Production in the United States flourished from the 1860s to the 1880s. A chine applique or chine colle is a print in which the image is impressed onto a thin sheet of paper, originally China paper, which is backed by a stronger, thicker sheet. China paper takes an intaglio impression more easily than regular paper, so chine applique prints generally show a richer impression than standard prints. Proof prints are often done as chine appliques. Chromolithographs Lithographs printed in at least three colors.
Cityscape prints Prints depicting cities or towns.
Cloth prints Prints produced on cloth. Linen, cotton, and silk are frequently used. Counterproofs In printmaking, impressions taken from a print or drawing by passing it through a press against a damp sheet of paper. The image appears in reverse. Edition An edition of a print includes all the impressions published at the same time or as part of the same publishing event.
