title: TYPOGRAPHIC RETIN - EXAMPLE 3

subject date: 2019-11-15

caption: HISTORY OF PRINTING A photograph of a smiling girl eating an apple, reproduced with an irregular grain typographic screen: the net allows to make a continuous-tone image (with infinite shades of gray); in this way the image can be printed in ink, and the eye still perceives the illusion of halftones. Different structures can give the same image a different character; this is part of an example series, made by comparing some of the finest graphic screens inspired by manual historical engraving (see # 42861 to # 42866). Photoengraving, Italy, early seventies of the twentieth century
