"Engraving is an art of interior need since its birth, an art which carries in itself its satisfaction, a major art at first and not as some said a simple process charged to reproduce in several examples a drawing or the facsimile of a painting". So writing, diging, leaving trace, Does there exist a more intimate, a more personal, a more discrete and immediate expression than writing in images ?
Jean-E-Bersier, "engraving, processes, history"
