Discovery of CopperpIate Engraving

they are produced by printing from an en-
eraved copper-plate Like many other
things of use and beauty. this art OF cop
per-plate engraving was discovered
through the merest accident, by the goid-
smiths of Florence. in the fifteenth CEN
tury. 1t is a historical fact, however
that one day an engraver on, gold wishing
TO take a proof Of his work. made the
usual sulphur cast, and then filled up the
lines with lamp-black, thus enabling MIN

that possibly the same results could De
obtained by filling up the original en-
craving with lampblack instead OF making
an impression Of IT, and filling up tnat
struck with the idea, he put 1t into prac-
tical use. and with a little damp paper
succeeded i'm getting a fair Impression
from the engraving. The discovery was
communicated TO other workers in the
art and they hailed II with JOY, as IL
saved all the arduous trouble OF making
sulnhur casts but they never saw the fun
vaIue OF the discovery. and consequently
the art Of plate-engraving lay for almost
century before its true import was dis
covered and brought out In all It's great

resnlts of earlier times, and search the
world for examples OF these early masters

collections have been presented 10 mu-
eeums where they may be seen and ap-
nreclated by the people.
