 Perhaps many lovers of graphic art, who have had no 
 opportunity closely to study this subject, wonder what the various 
 terms, common to print-collectors and graphic artists, mean, such 
 as etching, dry-point, aquatint, line-engraving, stipple-engraving, 
 mezzotint-engraving, woodcut^ lithography and colour-print. The 
 following is a brief attempt to explain these various terms. 
 
 The word etch is of Teutonic origin and it means to eat or 
 to bite. Hence comes the word etching, the process of which is 
 as follows: The etcher takes a copper-plate, polished on one side 
 and covered with a thin coating of the so called etching-ground, 
 a compound of asphaltum, resin, and wax. The etching-ground 
 is then blackened with smoke and the artist draws his subject by 
 means of a special needle, cutting lines through the film of the 
 etching-ground to the surface of the copper-plate. Having his 
 design completed he immerses the plate in a bath of acid which 
 immediately attacks the naked metal. The heavier and darker 
 lines need, of course, a longer exposure to the acid biting than 
 lines of finer and more delicate character. The copper-plate, 
 with the picture "eaten in", is then thoroughly cleaned and goes 
 to the printing press. The printing of etchings is an art in itself 
 recquiring a considerable skill and is generally done by the etchers 
 themselves. 
 
 7 
 
The technique of stipple-engraving is very much Hke that 
 of an etching, only that here the artist produces the various effects 
 of light and shade by groupping the dots, eliminating from his 
 picture entirely the drawing of lines. 
 
 When the artist with a needle scratches his design directly 
 into the copper-plate without first laying the etching-ground and 
 without using the acid we call this the dry-point technique, which 
 is closely related to the line-engraving. 
 
 In mezzotint the well polished surface of the copper-plate 
 is roughened by means of a toothed tool called a rocker, which 
 makes small hollows or dents in the metal. The imprint from such 
 a grounded plate would be perfectly black. The artist has to 
 scrape the ground to smooth out the rough places in the form 
 of his subject and thus produce a mezzotint. 
 
 The aquatint is a process in which finely-powdered resin 
 is dispersed over the copper-plate. By heating the plate to a certain 
 degree the resin is melted and baked upon the metal, forming 
 grains finer or coarser according to the finess or coarseness of the 
 powder used. Thus acid may etch only between the grains of 
 resin producing that peculiar effect which this method suggests 
 in its name. 
 
 in the technique of soft ground (vernis mou) one uses a soft, 
 greasy ground, the principle part of which is a fat that does not 
 harden. On a plate which is covered by this ground, the etcher 
 places tissue or other paper of a distinctive texture or a piece 
 of silk which, by means of a roller, he presses down lightly. With 
 soft or hard pencils he draws upon this paper or silk, which, in 
 the places where he makes his marks, adheres more or less firmly 
 to the plate. In removing this paper or silk covering, the etching- 
 
 8 
 
ground is lifted with it in those places where lines have been 
 drawn, baring the plate correspondingly while the rest of the 
 etching-ground remains. The lines of a soft-ground show the 
 texture of the superimposed material and have uneven edges. 
 
 A colour-etching is produced by the imprint from several 
 plates, usually three in number, each plate being made just for 
 a single color, or else from a single plate on which the different 
 colored areas are inked in with brushes or stamps. 
 
 The art of wood-engraving or Woodcutting consists in 
 transferring the design to a woodblock and then employing the 
 knife and gravers to cut and dig away the wood between the 
 lines. The wood that is left untouched, prints. Thus wood-cutting 
 and wood-engraving is the opposite of etching; in the former the 
 lines rise from the ground (surface printing), while in the latter 
 the Hues are incised, etched into the plate, sunk below its surface 
 (intaglio printing). 
 
 Lithography y or writing on stone, is a method of reproduction 
 by which a drawing is printed from a slab of limestone. The 
 printing surface is neither in relief nor sunk, as the process rests 
 solely upon the mutually repelling reaction of grease and water. 
 The drawing is done with a special ink or crayon, the greasy 
 substance of which is readily absorbed by the porous stone, and 
 all such places will repulse water while the rest of the surface 
 will take it freely. The drawing will take the oily printers ink, 
 but the moistened parts of the stone will repell it. Lifhography 
 was invented in I 796 by a Bohemian, Alois Senef elder, who 
 was born in Prague on November 6, 1771.

ALEX, Adolf, J., (1890 — ) is the pseudonym of 
 Adolf Jelmek, born in Strmilov, Czechoslovakia. He was a pupil 
 of Max Svabinsky and, at one time, was a student at the Munich 
 Academy of Arts. For subject matters he is concerned chiefly with 
 the dramatic representations of characters. His prints, depicting life 
 in the Army and Gypsy camps, are full of vitality and atmosphere. 
 
 BILEK, Frantisek, (1872 — ) born in Chynov, Czecho- 
 slovakia, is one of the foremost sculptors and woodcarvers of that 
 country. After having completed his studies at the Prague Academy 
 of Arts he went to Paris where he drew inspiration from the vast 
 treasures of art. His subjects are of religious, mystic, and symbolic 
 character, and are quite often drawn from the glorious epoch of 
 the Bohemian Reformation. Not finding time enough to create all 
 his dreams in stone and wood he produced the following sets of 
 prints: The Prayers — Our Father — Building the Temple of 
 the Future — and The Path. We have also his wonderful 
 interpretation of Calvary in woodcuts, originally a monumental 
 series of woodcarvings. Of the book illustrations we name merely 
 those which he prepared for the special editions of the poems 
 of his friends, Julius Zeyer and Otokar Bfezina. 
 
 BOETTINGER, Hugo, (1880— ) born in Plzen, Cze- 
 choslovakia, studied at the Prague Academy of Arts. Besides the 
 oil paintings of allegorical subjects he devotes himself to caricature- 
 drawings of prominent personalities. 
 
 10 
 
B R AU N ERO VA, Zdenka,( 1 862—) born in Prague, 
 studied under Chittusi and later under Curtois in Paris. The artist 
 is one of the first Czechoslovak etchers to treat her subjects in a 
 modern style. Her prints depicting the picturesque corners of ancient 
 Prague reveal the charms of a true etcher's method and vision. 
 
 ENGELMUELLER,Ferdinand,(l867— )whowas 
 born in Prague makes the centre of his interest the beauties of the 
 plains along the river Labe. At times he wanders off to the Italian 
 orchards or to the sombre City of Venice. A moody romanticism 
 and a picturesqueness one can always find in all his plates. 
 
 KOBLIHA,Frantisek,(l 877 — )born inPrague where 
 he studied at the Academy of Arts. To name the most important 
 works of his we would mention the following: Vision - Prague - To- 
 ward Morning - The Revengeful Melody - TheWoman - Tristan 
 - May - Moonlight Nights - Don Quixote - and Bookplates. 
 
 KO N U P E K, J an, ( 1 883— ) was born in Mlada Boleslav, 
 Czechoslovakia. An artistic education was given to him at the 
 Prague Academy of Arts. At present he is a professor of drawing 
 at the State School of Crafts in Plzeii. The two volumes of 
 Western Bohemias Barocco, The Hymns of the Night, Etchings 
 for Shakespeare's Hamlet, for Zorilla*s Don Juan, for Erben's 
 Boquet, and for Dante's Inferno deserve special attention. He 
 illustrated also a number of books. 
 
 KUPKA,Frantisek, (1871— ) born in Dobruska, Cze- 
 choslovakia, resides in Paris where he won fame as a painter and 
 
 11 
 
artist of a high culture. One of the first graphic plates of his is 
 the composition known under the name "Les Fous'*, in which he 
 satirized the historical and social movements. Further he illustrated 
 '*L*Homme et la Terre*' of Elysee Reclus, '*Erinnyes" of Leconle 
 de Lisle, and '*Lysistrata** of Aristophanes. A French publication 
 came out in Paris by L. Arnould Gremilly entitled "Frank Kupka'* 
 with illustrations by the artist himself. 
 
 LAUD A, Richard, (1873—) bom in Jistebnice, Cze- 
 choslovakia. Southern Bohemia's landscapes depicted in his set 
 of prints called "From Southern Bohemia" deserve attention. 
 
 LOLEK, Stanislav, (1873 — ) born in Palom'n, Czecho- 
 slovakia, has shown special interest in woodland scenery and 
 animal life. He was a pupil of Julius Mafak in Prague. 
 
 MAJER, Antonin, (1882 — ) born in Prague, lived later 
 in the northeastern part of Bohemia, where he devoted himself to 
 depicting the scenic beauties of the country, especially those which 
 can be found along the banks of the Jizera River. The artist is 
 active in the realm of etching and woodcut. 
 
 MYSLBEK, Karel, (1874—1915) born in Prague, 
 Czechoslovakia, was a son of the famous Czech sculptor 
 Joseph Vaclav Myslbek. For his oil paintings and for his 
 etchings he chose melancholy themes from the lives of the 
 emigrants, the blind, the proletariat, and so forth. An untimely 
 death during the World War prevented the fulfilment of his 
 artistic intentions. 
 
 12 
 
PREISSIG, Vojtech, (1873—) born in Svetec. Cze- 
 choslovakia, entered the State School of Arts and Crafts in Prague 
 and spent also several years in Paris studying graphic arts with 
 Schmid and Delaune of the Ecole Colarossi. For a time he was 
 with Marold and Mucha. Master of technique and of the pecul- 
 iarities of the various styles of engraving, he published in Czecho- 
 slovakia the first book on the graphic technique, which is known 
 ill the United States under the title of Colour Etchings (New 
 York). His graphic works are chiefly decorative in nature. At 
 the present time he is the head of the Department of Printing 
 and Graphic Arts at the Wentworth Institute in Boston. 
 
 S I LO V S K Y, Vladimir, ( 1 89 1 — ) born in Liban, Cze- 
 choslovakia, began to study architecture in the Prague School of 
 Technology, changing later to the School of Arts and Crafts. 
 Max Svabinsky was one of his master-teachers. Social struggles, 
 the misery of war, various events of every-day life, scenes from 
 the foundries, from the steel mills and from the mines, are a rich 
 source of inspiration to this artist. His plates are often crowded 
 with the figures of workingmen, old women, men, and hungry 
 children; he makes us feel the ache of their limbs, stiff with 
 fatigue, and to see the patience in their eyes. 
 
 STRETTI, Viktor, (1878—) bom in Plasy, Czecho- 
 slovakia, spent three years at the Prague Academy of Arts, 
 finishing his studies in Munich, where he learned to etch under 
 the guidance of Peter Halm. Besides many city and country 
 views, figure studies, and landscapes, the three sets of his prints 
 show Paris, the Thames River, and Ostende, as they appeared 
 
 13 
 
to his visionary temperament. We have from him specimens of 
 all the various techniques of etching with the exception of the 
 woodcut. From Paris he brought to Czechoslovakia the French 
 custom of New Year cards. 
 
 STRETTI-ZAMPONI,Jaromir,(]882— )born in 
 Plasy, Czechoslovakia, younger brother of Viktor Stretti, began 
 his career as a bank clerk and later settled down to the life of 
 an artist. Colour-prints are his speciality. Besides the views from 
 Paris, Rouen, and Venice, ancient Prague attracts him with its 
 manifold beauties, where he seems to find ever new and pictur- 
 esque views. 
 
 SIMON, Frantisek, T„ (1877 — ) born in Zeleznice, 
 Czechoslovakia, graduated at the Prague Academy of Arts. At 
 the beginning of his artistic career he visited Southern Europe, 
 where he interested himself especially in the Slavic countries: 
 Bosnia, Herzegovina, Dalmatia, and Montenegro. There his 
 artistic temperament and his sense of beauty made ample use of 
 the characteristics of Southern Slavs and the scenic beauties of 
 their countries. After spending a few years in Italy and London 
 he settled in Paris, where he remained until the outbreak of the 
 World War. In Paris he devoted himself to mono- and poly- 
 chrome etchings and became a member of the Societe de la 
 Gravure en Couleurs, of the Societe desPeintres-graveurs Frangais, 
 and of the Societe de la Gravure sur Bois, as well as Secretary 
 of the Salon d'Automne. Georges Petit in Paris published about 
 45 of his plates. Others were published by A. Roullier in Chi- 
 cago, Fred Keppel in New York, Wed G. Dorens in Amsterdam, 
 
 14 
 
and J. Stenc in Prague. Noteworthy are his etchings from the 
 destroyed City of Rheims and his sets of prints called "Paris 
 Motives'* and "Hradcany'* (Castle of Prague). The artist is a 
 member of the Czech Academy of Arts and Sciences, the curator 
 of the Modern Gallery in Prague, and one of the founders of 
 "Hollar" — a society of Czech graphic artists. His prints show 
 a most intimate knowledge of scenic beauty and a wonderful 
 skill in depicting it. F. T. Simon is one of the Czech artists who 
 is best known on the foreign print-markets. 
 
 SVABINSKY,Max,(1873— ) born in Kromenz, Cze- 
 choslovakia, graduated at the Prague Academy of Arts, where he 
 is now the head of the Graphic School. Although he is first and 
 foremost a painter, who knows how to catch with his brush the 
 human likeness and to express his visions on large canvasses and 
 surfaces, he today leads in the Czechoslovak graphic art. He might 
 be called a graphic poet, an artist of lofty imagination and of high 
 originality. Graceful etchings of trees and woodland scenery, 
 landscapes of restful beauty, noble portraits, days and nights with 
 their wonderful contrast of light and darkness, plates large or in 
 miniature, bear unmistakably the mark of a genius. Magnificent are 
 his sets of prints In the Primeval IVoods and the Paradise Sonata, 
 where gorgeous tropical vegetation, beautiful feminine nudes, butter- 
 flies, tigers, and strange birds appear at their master's command in 
 proper time and in proper environement. Svabinsky's plates mark 
 the pinnacle in the evolution of the Czechoslovak graphic art. 
 
 TONDL, Karel, (1893 — ) born in Krasno, Czechoslo- 
 vakia, was a pupil of Jan Preisler at the Prague Academy of 
 
 15* 
 
Arts and later of Max Svabinsky at the Graphic School. In 1 920 
 he went to Paris on a traveling-fellowship granted by the French 
 Government, where he acquired a deep knowledge of graphic 
 art, especially of the woodcut. There he also held an exhibition 
 of his etchings in the Societe Nationale and the Artistes Frangais. 
 
 UPRKA, Joza, (1862—) born in Knezdub, Czecho- 
 slovakia, is one of the most prominent Czechoslovak painters. 
 Peasant folks in their picturesque national costumes, peasant life 
 in general, and the beauty and brightness of country scenes entirely 
 absorb his interest. While oil painting is this artist's real domain, 
 his masterly draughtsmanship finds expression in the etching with 
 its comparative coldness and lack of color. 
 
 VI K, Karel, (1883 — ) born in Horice, Czechoslovakia, 
 interests himself chiefly in woodcut. Best known are his sets of 
 prints entitled In the Mountains and The Bohemian Paradise. 
 
 VONDROUS, Jan, C, (1 884 — ) was born in Chotu- 
 sice, Czechoslovakia. He came to United States with his parents, 
 who emigrated to this country when he was nine years of age. 
 His artistic education he obtained in four year's study under 
 James D. Smillie in the schools of the National Academy of Design 
 in New York. It is no wonder then that his colleagues from the 
 Prague Art Society *'Manes" recognized him as a man belonging 
 to the Anglo-American school. The artist, as a true etcher, is 
 entirely absorbed in technical problems of etching. Ancient 
 architecture appeals especially to his artistic sense, as can be 
 seen from his numerous plates from Italy, Belgium, and Prague. 
 
 16 
 
Last but not least are his prints with subject matter from the Uni- 
 ted States: the Library of Columbia University, fishermen's boats, 
 the preparation of fish for the market, work in the ship yards,' 
 and so forth. During the World War he produced a series of prints 
 entitled Kultmtraegers. The climax of his art, however, seems to 
 be reached in his plates of Old Prague, whose dusky mysteries 
 and beauties appeal to him with an abiding charm which is 
 echoed by the refrain of an English ballad : 
 
 **Yet the persons I pity 
 Who know not the city 
 The beautiful City of Prague!" 
 
 WELLNER, Karel, (1875 -) born in Unhost', Cze- 
 choslovakia, is a professor of drawing in Olomouc, Moravia. 
 A large portion of his prints present the beauties of this city and 
 its surroundings. 
 
 17 
 
For the rest, it is my pleasant duty to thank Mr. Frantisek 
 Zakavec, the art-critic of Prague, and Henry J. John, M. D. for 
 various information and counsel, and also the Czechoslovak 
 iNational Alliance of America for the financial aid which made 
 this edition possible.
