What is the distinction between a lithograph and an imprint?

Throughout the nineteenth century, lithography was primarily a graphic art form and, as such, still holds a high artistic reputation. Lithographs are original artworks of artists and are typically signed, while offset lithographic printing and reproductions do not have a signature.

In a printer, what colors are there?

Typically, color printing uses four-color inks: cyan , magenta , yellow, and black. The resulting "primary" mixtures are red, green , and blue when the CMY "secondary" is combined at full strength.

What is printing history?

Woodblock printing, which appeared in China before 220 AD, was the earliest known form of printing applied to paper. The movable type invented by Bi Sheng around 1040 AD and the printing press invented by Johannes Gutenberg in the 15th century are also later developments in printing technology.

Are lithographs worth anything?

An original piece of a famous artist's work of art is expensive. A lithograph print is more affordable, but it still carries a tag of exclusivity, quality and value, as there will almost definitely not be many copies. It is not a reproduction and higher prices for the original lithograph are potentially required.
