The Nature of Prints & Engravings
: It was not until the 20th century that prints were commonly produced for the
print
itself. Prior to this, virtually all prints (and engravings) were produced as
illustrations
to be included in a manuscript, book, newspaper, or pamphlet. Therefore, a vast majority of original prints have been over the years removed from these original sources. Prints are produced using many different techniques:
relief printing
(woodcut & wood engraving),
intaglio printing
(steel & copper plate engraving, drypoint, aquatint, etc), and
planographic printing
(lithography, serigraphy, inkjet, laser, etc.).  While the commercial value of a print depends on such factors as age, rarity, and condition, the real value of a print is its tie to its history and/or its esthetic beauty.
