    Thank you! Was looking for some actual closeup images of stone lithograph, for some reason hard to find on google. Also appreciated the details on how they are made.

    I am currently framing the 12 lithographs from the 1881 Smithsonian with Zun,i Hopi fetishes, bowls, blanket weaver..... When you look at the detail under a X30 loupe it is just wonderful. no dots.... and there are black white red blue green yellow all on one litho.

    Thank You for Your Clarification + Expertise, I am still trying to determine what my particular piece is but
    I am now fairly convinced that it is called a Steel Engraving, Brown on heavy Brown Paper, it has Wavy Lines, Cut Off, Etc. . Checking Again, Thank You

    I am well versed in stone lithography and anxious to resume printing. The main downside is that few appreciate stone lithographs, and the marketplace does not place a premium on it. Thanks for explaining some features to those who don't know.

      its tough because theres so much that goes into it, and every little thing in the process can change the final product, but people looking at the art wont understand any of that. they wont uderstand that theres no way to know if youre etching the right amount until after the fact, they wont understand that you had to spend hours graining a stone just for a something you couldnt see to scratch the surface and only be visible after youve put endless hours into it. out of every type of art ive learned, stone lithography is definitely the coolest, but also 100% the most difficult

    So you would be able to see dots with a magnifier on a finished lithograph but not on a print etching? Is this correct? Trying to learn! 😃 Thank you and have a great day!

      Stone lithography has dots which resemble the random texture of the stone. If the pattern is regularly spaced dots arranged in a grid, that's offset litho. Etchings may also have randomly arranged dots, but they will have a plate-mark debossed on the edge of the print. It's confusing, maybe, but worth looking at lots of prints to tell the difference in their techniques.

      @@brucewood632 Thanks very much Bruce! I have what I think is a lithograph . Its a print from an art catalog from1880 for a Demidov sale. Its on page 52 of the original catalog and I also found the sculpture at the Huntington Museum in San Marino California attributed to Clodion. Its been fun doing research!😃

    Great for value collectors: lithographs are cool: the virgin ink and the reprints. It's awkward to explain.
