Engraving Definition
The term engraving in the context of antiques refers to an image printed on a paper almost a century ago. The design is carved into a metal or wood with a sharp tool, called support. Then it is taken to the printer who spread ink on the engraved lines. After wiping away excess ink, the sheet is pressed onto a paper.
