Being able to do stippling by hand is a special talent.
The dot pattern on nearly all printed matter wasn't done by hand. The halftone is made by photographing the original through a filter that's basically a screen the varying ammounts of light through each hole expose the film differently and produce the dot pattern. One of the things that I like about 1910 era lithography is that they combine halftones which were fairly advanced for the time with more traditional art style layers that don't have a dot pattern. So the T206s are essentially a brown monotone image that's been colored. That had been pretty much abandoned by the 80's, and likely much sooner. Modern systems are also screened much finer, and there are systems that are direct from the computer to the plate which is created while it's on the press. Steve B |
