註釋
In this first comprehensive study of every aspect of the mezzotint, Carol Wax traces the history of the medium: its earliest presentation to the public in Amsterdam in 1642, its growth in the eighteenth centrury, particularly in England, as a means of disseminating inexpensive copies of popular painting, its decline in the nineteenth century in the face of competition from cheaper print-making processes, and its resurgence in the twentieth century.
