About this etching
Etching on copper, printed on 200gsm Fabriano Watercolour paper.
The first etching I made with my own press in Berlin in summer 2020. Back then I was unable to continue working at my university's studio due to the pandemic. Eventually I decided to take this step and be independent from other studios. Weirdly my memories of tweaking the process, materials and press settings are now very fond, although then at the moment it was very stressful due to the multitude of things that go wrong at the beginning.
Shipping

This etching ships inside a cardboard envelope, wrapped in acid free tissue paper and placed between additional cardboard layers to prevent damage.
Display and care
A safe way to display it is usually in a glass frame with a passepartout. Please avoid long-term exposure of the print to direct sunlight and very high air humidity. Store only in materials that do not attack the paper or ink.
