{"product_id":"65032-die-lithografin","title":"Die Lithografin","description":"Welcome to the lithographer's workshop! Step by step, she unravels the secrets of stone printing: a printing technique that can be so astonishing it almost seems like magic. Here, it is explained how water and grease repel each other, how drawings disappear and then reappear. Here, drawing, inking, etching, rolling, and crunching with sand take place until magical images can be printed. This wonderful picture book is illustrated in the style of a lithograph – in blue, red, and yellow – and takes us back to the beginnings of this fascinating reproduction technique. It tells of the many attempts made by the inventor Alois Senefelder more than 200 years ago to make it easier to reproduce thoughts, musical notes, and art. He experimented like a chemist until he succeeded in giving stones a memory. Lithography remains a special art to this day, and at the same time, it gave rise to the processes still used today to print books, newspapers, and posters.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGABY BAZIN (*1992) lives in Pantin.
